I am already backporting and will backport all recent versions. Just in case ;)

emasab commented 1 month ago

@mensfeld I confirm there's no plan to make repos private, especially the clients.

mensfeld commented 1 month ago

@emasab I did not expect anything else. Nonetheless shipping without GH as a dependency was on my todo list for more than half a year anyhow. All good. I backported and released embedded versions of librdkafka prior to you restoring the repo. Hope you don't mind! I'll clean up and share appropriate license references in the upcoming releases. I might have missed the appropriate license references because of the urgency (lack of GH was causing build failures). Sorry in advance :pray:

mensfeld commented 1 month ago

Actually no. The licenses are correctly embedded in the tar.gz package release so we're good.

Someone in slack confirmed it was a mistake, and not done on purpose. " Hey, folks. This should be all better now. It was an error with permissions, not an intentional removal of this repo! I'll share more when I have more details to share, but I just wanted to say sorry for the scare and let you know it should be back to normal. Would you let me know here if you see this or any other repo not being available the way you expect? "

mensfeld commented 1 month ago

@emasab You may want to work with GH to restore :star2: and other references transferred to the new "master" as imho it may confuse newcomers.

emasab commented 1 month ago

@mensfeld we're trying even if it's difficult. We know GitHub did it for their own repos so maybe it's possible. In the meantime please re-star the clients to support them.

@emasab already did :) thank you for all the hard work :pray:
