Who is maintainer of this package? #17

Closed dfdx closed 8 years ago

dfdx commented 8 years ago

I believe it's time to bring this package to the next level, providing high-level API, documentation and all other signs of maturity. I've already started some changes and plan to make much more, but I don't want to break old APIs and go against old ideas without agreement with maintainers / original authors of this package. So I wonder who should I address for decision regarding important changes?

If nobody is currently responsible for this package, I'd like to take over it (including bugs and improvements).

I think you can assume "ownership" of the package. I don't do OpenCL/GPU programming anymore so I'm not going to be the best maintainer going forward. The idea of using Github groups is that collaborators are sophisticated enough to do PR's and improvements on their own and that there is no one "owner".

Well, the reason I ask is that very often maintainers or "owners" have a general vision for project development, while "ordinary" contributors see only distinct parts (note quotes, since it all is rather arbitrary). But since nobody has an active plan for this package, I assume it's safe to move it in a direction which I believe is the most appropriate.

Thanks for comments.
