Future of this project? #44

Open linkvt opened 3 years ago

linkvt commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I use the containerized version and it works well, thanks so far! I unfortunately have to say that I also noticed that there is quite some stuff which seems a bit outdated to me, like updates to keepalived which is available in 2.1.5 (I already tested it and can open a PR) or updates to the base (alpine 3.10 is EOL May 2021 and 3.12 is out) or updates to the tickets which are sometimes already solved but still open.

@BertrandGouny could you please share if you have any plans for this repo or the base image in the future? I really like the project as it has some convenient features and understand that this is an open source project where you are of course not obliged to do something as owners, but if there is something that can be done to keep this alive the community could maybe support you here more.

After having a quick look and of course not knowing many use cases or the history it seems that this image could maybe be decoupled from the current base image and simplified a bit to keep it more uptodate and easier to maintain, not sure what you think about this.

Thanks, Vincent

@linkvt thanks for your message, i will be happy to take more time maintaining this project if people are willing to make PR. I still use it on some production servers and keeping it up to date would be appreciated.

Thanks for the warning, I will take some time to update the baseimage during the next weeks.

Feel free to contribute i will be happy to review any proposition.

Hi @BertrandGouny , thanks for the info, I will take a look over the issues and check where/if I can do something or will mention you if they could be closed in my opinion. Regarding the base image, I understood that you want to keep them and will also take a look at that.

@BertrandGouny what do you think about this bot? https://github.com/probot/stale

There are many old issues that could easily be cleaned up like this, see e.g. https://github.com/osixia/docker-keepalived/issues/28 or https://github.com/osixia/docker-keepalived/issues/4 which is basically not solvable without any infos and is most likely a user issue which is probably also fixed until now.

Hi, I created a PR to avoid this, take a look to: #60
