I have been participating in the Exercism forum thread on starting a REXX track, and would like to be its maintainer. Not sure how best to make this request so am doing so here.

REXX and git I already know, but need to get up to speed with the pragmatics of managing an Exercism track on github. So, what's the best way to proceed ?

kotp commented 1 year ago

Once the new track repository is approved and created, the @exercism/maintainers-admin team can set that up. I think you have already stated your desire to help in the discussion about this.

@kytrinyx: @ajborla is volunteering to be the maintainer for this track. So could you go ahead and bootstrap pls. (cc @jonathandmiddleton and @ErikSchierboom too)

ajborla commented 1 year ago

Thank you - very much look forward to the challenge !

kytrinyx commented 1 year ago

Yay, that is great news! I will bootstrap this as soon as I get back to my computer.

kytrinyx commented 1 year ago

Here you go @ajborla https://github.com/exercism/rexx/issues/1

You should have an invite to the exercism/rexx team that has write-access to the repo. If there are others who want to build the track with you let me know and I'll add them to the team as well.

Thank you !

ErikSchierboom commented 1 year ago

@ajborla I've added you as a maintainer to the DB. This will come in useful once we're ready to test the track .

@ErikSchierboom Thank you.
