If author is too busy please add some maintainers

PikachuEXE commented 10 years ago

Still no response...

zamber commented 10 years ago

Yeah, it's dead. Tweeted Keith, maybe we will get a response.

The code is on MIT so with some work we could mockup a new gh page and add the pull requests hanging here to resolve the issues selectivizr has now.

PikachuEXE commented 10 years ago

Tweeted also. If no response in 1 week then we can start to figure out how to work on it But I got a forked library to handle already, not sure if got time as a maintainer (might help reading small PR)

zamber commented 10 years ago

I'm also unsure if I have enough time for maintaining though I have to support IE8 and in the process figure out what other issues I can hit when using selectivizr.

Nevertheless, despite the circumstances a call for maintainers is not a big commitment as you noted ;).

https://github.com/keithclark/selectivizr/network last activity from 3 days ago so it's pretty much alive.

brgrz commented 10 years ago

Was there any kind of reply to your tweets? Since it's not moving on we should consider moving it to a new repo and set up a few maintainers where each one would contribute as much time as one had, it would be a huge improvement to what we have now.

zamber commented 10 years ago

I didn't get a response but keithclark is alive showed some activity (see the rederenced pull request above).

We can always implement fixes, make pull requests and see how things go.

brgrz commented 10 years ago

well apparently the pull request don't get accepted and merged in, there's already quite a few of them, so making more doesn't make sense if they don't get merged

stevenvachon commented 10 years ago

I tweeted him a short while ago regarding two important PRs. One he ignored and the other he provided a good explanation.

PikachuEXE commented 10 years ago

@stevenvachon If he going to maintain this project? That's what I want to know the most. :)

keithclark commented 10 years ago

@brgrz I'll happily merge PR's if they contain tests that identify the issue and prove the fix. For almost every open PR I have to checkout the branch and try to recreate the issue locally before I can be confident of merging.

@stevenvachon I answered both your queries on twitter.

@Zamber of course you can do that, that's the beauty of open source. If you'd like to create a break-away repo and merge these PR's yourself, please do.

stevenvachon commented 10 years ago

@keithclark Ah, yes, you're right; I'd forgotten. Have you decided on a package manager?

PikachuEXE commented 10 years ago

Bower?

stevenvachon commented 10 years ago

It's probably not going to happen.

jpdevries commented 10 years ago

What is the objection to bower?
