Dear all,
This email is inspired by recent request by org-vcard maintainer to
transfer maintenance to someone else:
https://github.com/flexibeast/org-vcard
As a part of Org project (https://sr.ht/~bzg/org/), we currently have
https://git.sr.ht/~bzg/org-contrib/:
org-contrib: Contributed packages to Org in search for new maintainers.
There, we do a very minimal maintenance and encourage people to take
over the containing packages.
Should we extend the org-contrib's current idea to other Org-related
packages that are seeking a maintainer? Similar to
https://github.com/emacsorphanage
We may temporarily use Org mailing list as a place to report bugs.
- This will give a better chance for interested people to contribute,
and hopefully take over the work on abandoned packages.
- We can also guarantee some (very) minimal maintenance.
- And it will promote Org mailing list as a place to discuss Org-related
staff.
WDYT?
