Open joh opened 1 year ago
@tatokis I created an "Announcement" label for making announcements within the GitHub Issues. If you prefer a different place for announcements, please move this as you wish.
Also, please feel free to add the above announcement to the new website, if you wish :)
@joh thank you very much for your kind words!
I hadn't noticed the existence of this label. I'll have to write a script to automate adding announcements from GH issues to the website.
How long should we keep announcement issues open for?
Feel free to close the issue as you wish :)
I agree GH issues is not ideal for making announcements, but at least they are visible and easy to find this way.
Hello alarm-clock contributors and users,
After a long period of being unmaintained, I am thrilled to announce that alarm-clock has a new maintainer: @tatokis!
You may have noticed a recent burst of activity in the project, with lots of improvements, bug fixes, and even a new 0.4.1 release! All of these developments are thanks to @tatokis.
New maintainer
As the original creator of alarm-clock, it makes me very happy to hand over the maintainership to @tatokis. He has already made significant contributions to the code base, including porting the project to Gtk 3, GSettings, GtkApplication, GActions and a more modern CMake build system. All of these improvements should also enable alarm-clock-applet to be packaged in modern Linux distributions. I am confident that the project will thrive under his leadership.
Note: The maintainership was handed over in Nov 2022, but I felt it was appropriate with an official announcement. My apologies for the delay in making this announcement.
