Looking for someone to take over this project

[jwilm]

It's been a couple of years since I was using Koa, and at least a year since doing any work with Node.js. I'm not putting the time into this project that it and the developers relying on it deserve. If there's anyone interested in taking over this project, please speak up here.

Thanks to everyone who has used this project and worked to improve it.

https://github.com/gilt as an organization would be willing to. we use koa-hbs extensively in production.

[jwilm]

Having an organization be the steward of koa-hbs could be really good for everyone. I'm personally a fan of this option.

[haoxins]

@jwilm I can also transfer this repo to koajs

[jwilm]

Moving the repo to the koa organization sounds good for the longevity of the project. Maybe @shellscape can be added as a contributor? Does that work for everyone?

[shellscape]

👍

[haoxins]

@jwilm I'm outing for several days, you can transfer this repo to me, and I'll transfer it to koajs org later.

@shellscape Are you also willing to help maintain koa-hbs?

[shellscape]

@coderhaoxin yes, as are the front end developers in the gilt org. we use it quite extensively

[jwilm]

@coderhaoxin looks like you have an active fork of koa-hbs. The project can't be transferred until that's renamed/removed.

[jwilm]

@shellscape @coderhaoxin you're both collaborators for now until the repo can be moved.

[shellscape]

👍 great thanks @jwilm

[jwilm]

@shellscape maybe I should just move this to gilt?

[shellscape]

@jwilm we'd be happy to take it on. the company's npm account is gilt-tech, if you'd like to add them as a collaborator there as well.

[jwilm]

I've added gilt-tech on npm. Is the correct GitHub receiver simply gilt?

[shellscape]

yes https://github.com/gilt - it's an organization account

[jwilm]

There's a koa-hbs in gilt already, and it's preventing the transfer. Can you move it?

[shellscape]

Yeah that's our fork. Just renamed it to gilt-koa-hbs. You should be good to go!

[jwilm]

ugh. Slightly different error. Apparently you can't have anything in the koa-hbs network.

[shellscape]

@jwilm ok, we've got our last change merged in so I'll kill the repo. not a problem.

(done)

[jwilm]

The error messages associated with this process are pretty crap. I can't actually transfer it to gilt since I don't have admin rights there, but I think I can transfer it to another user. The repo could be transferred to you, and you could transfer it to gilt.

[shellscape]

@jwilm ok let's do that, no problem.

[jwilm]

Woo, finally!

Repository transfer to shellscape requested

[shellscape]

Just got the email and it looks like it's good to go. Cheers! I'll work on getting that over under Gilt's umbrella.

[shellscape]

We're all set! Thanks for taking the time to push that through @jwilm .
