New Maintainers are here needed! #339

Closed daviddias closed 5 months ago

daviddias commented 5 years ago

Hi everyone!

Apologies for the silence/huge delay on getting back to y'all. Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to dedicate any time to node-spdy at all for the last year (as you might have noticed) and that translated to a bunch of PRs and issues going without response for ages, I'm sorry to everyone that has been waiting.

I want to increase the number of maintainers and I believe a way to do it is to adopt a similar strategy I created for the IPFS, libp2p and IPLD ecosystem of packages, the Lead Maintainer Protocol. Me and @indutny can continua acting as the tech leads and give space for new lead maintainers to appear and take ownership of getting the 4 modules of node-spdy into a great shape.

Looking forward to hear your thoughts.

Also: If no one else volunteers to help maintain, I'd be interested in getting the v10.x fix merged in and adding engines to package.json so that v8.x users don't get it (and perhaps a major semver rev is in order). I probably wouldn't make a great maintainer, but I could follow a checklist to make sure that ci passes before a merge, the new version is tagged and published, etc.

At this point (over two months seems like a long time), if someone doesn't take over to get fixes in, and if none of the 191 forks doesn't get a blessing, the project may very well... die...

So perhaps even imperfect maintainership will be better than no maintainership.

Thank you for volunteering @coolaj86! Perhaps a good solution that is today available in the Node.js community (https://changelog.com/jsparty/48 reminded me of this), is to ask for umbrella on the JS/Node.js Foundation so that this module can get proper dedicated resources.

@bnb, @dmethvin any advice on how we could make this work?

@diasdavid What sort of help are you looking for?

daviddias commented 5 years ago

Maintaining the 4 modules that are on this org https://github.com/spdy-http2. They are pretty well tested and have been built for a while + SPDY and HTTP2 is a protocol that is very well spec'ed out. We could use some extra hands to ensure that the community keeps getting their PRs in.

AdamMagaluk commented 5 years ago

I am willing to lend a hand, I haven't contributed before but have spent quite a bit of time with the module and internals to build a project I maintain.

jimmiehansson commented 5 years ago

Is this project still in need of maintainers?

frank-dspeed commented 5 years ago

@jimmiehansson i don't think so as spdy is deprecated you can now use always http2

jimmiehansson commented 5 years ago

@frank-dspeed Thanks. That clarifies it!
