Org maintainance

Org maintainance

[Bastien]

Dear all,

I have not been able to be active as a maintainer since more than
half a year now.

I have been reading the mailing list, though, and Nicolas daily
commitment has been key in me being relaxed about tons of issues,
if not about the lack of a maintainer itself.  I have only dealt
with private requests like adding public keys.

My plan was to find more time and to come back, and this is still
my plan, but we need a deadline to tell whether the plan is alive
or dead.

So here is it: if I realize I cannot spent enough time on Org by
July, 17th then I'll step back as a maintainer and become a happy
contributor.

Thanks for your patience and for all the constructive discussions.

All best,

Help needed on delegating some maintainance tasks (was: Org maintainance)

[Bastien]

Hi all,

I need help on these maintainance tasks :

1. Watching the emacs-diffs mailing list and backport changes on Org
   in the local Org repository (2 hours per month).

2. Adding public keys on the orgmode.org server for org-mode and worg
   contributers (1 hour per month).

3. Maintaining the orgmode.org server and taking care of errors when
   updating Worg (1 hour per month).

4. Merging the last stable release into Emacs repository.  (1 hour
   every release).

5. Releasing Org (.5 hour every release).


I don't need advice on how to make these tasks more quickly or more
efficiently, I just need people who can take care of them.  If anyone
wants to help on any of these tasks, please raise your hand !  This
will help a lot in moving toward a sane situation.

Thanks,

As my git skills are near to zero, I could only help with #2 (after some
short introduction).

Kind regards

If you send out this email again next year when I have graduated from university, I'd be down with helping out with things ^_^.
