PEP 541: Semi-urgent request ownership of 'RIFT' package/name #6720

Closed oshaughn closed 5 years ago

oshaughn commented 5 years ago

I would like to request ownership of the RIFT project name, so we can replace the previous history. This project classifies as Abandoned by @yayg , who has committed only this project, whose last and only activity was 4 years ago, and who has no contact information.

This is a semi-urgent request because RIFT is used by the LIGO scientific collaboration for analysis of gravitational wave data, we strongly prefer a standard pip-installable packages, and analysis needed for publications will commence within the month (if not sooner) -- so addressing this before mid-October 2019 is important. Changing the namespace will introduce unnecessary confusion, as the project has been developed for almost 5 years with this name.

We're finishing the packaging now, so the structure will look a bit different, but we've used the same namespace on test.pypi.org

I've emailed the owner of that project at the public email address listed for that project as well as the email address PyPI has on file for that account, opened an issue in what appears to be the repository on github (and the account has been active recently) as well as attempted contact via the listed twitter account.

Hi Jason,

Sorry for the late reply. The project is not maintained anymore and surely doesn't need a pip-installable package. Let me know what you need from to transfer the name.

All the best.

Hi @yayg and thanks for the reply! If @oshaughn could supply a PyPI username, then you could add that username as an administrator of the PyPI project. They could then remove your account from the PyPI project and move forward with using the name.

My pypi username should be ‘oshaughn’

Thanks all!
