I concur with this concern. The patch
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2021-07/msg00000.html
has been proposed five months ago and after
several pings still only saw responses from Maxime.
It comes from a LilyPond developer trying to fix
issues relevant for LilyPond.

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=16364#19
is a patch allowing to silence the auto-compilation
logging, which is also somewhat relevant to our use
case. It has not seen any reaction.

I see a number of similar cases on the mailing list.

I understand the cost of reviewing and I know that
nobody is entitled to anything in the free software
world. However, I would like to voice the concern that
Guile's maintenance is not scaling, and the project
cannot attract new contributors if patches do not
make it to the main branch. If the current maintainers
need to drop their activity, it would be nice if
they could share maintainership so that at least
bug fixes can be applied.

(NB: Sending this as myself, _not_ after any sort
of discussion at LilyPond.)

Thank you for your consideration,
Jean Abou Samra

Sorry, this is me non-native-speaker mixing up

I got the requirements for copyright assignment in place two weeks ago,
so I could offer to apply obviously good patches.

I’ll need push-permission for that, though.

I just filed a request for inclusion to the savannah project for that:
https://savannah.gnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group=guile

Best wishes,
Arne

I agree and I apologize for the unpleasant situation: it’s clear that I
haven’t been up to the task for several years already.  I’ll discuss
with Andy how I can formally leave the seat to someone with more energy,
whom I’ll be happy to help learn practices and conventions.

If someone is interested, please get in touch with us!

While Andy focuses on major improvements to the compiler and VM with a
long-term vision, I think it would be great to also have people on the
maintainer team focusing on more day-to-day operations: incremental
improvements, bug fixes, etc.  I think we’re lucky that there’ve been a
number of talented contributors chiming in over the last couple of
years; let’s take advantage of this, at last!

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Sounds like a good idea.  Andy obviously does amazing work and I'm sure
I'm not the only one who's grateful for your contributions as well :-)
but having even some small patches for obvious bugfixes sit around for
months is a bit disheartening.

I won't apply because I don't feel like I'd be up to the task on a
technical level (my C skills in particular suck, my knowledge of Guile
internals is also quite limited) and I have way too many unfinished
projects plus a somewhat stressful 40h/week job...

But I would definitely like to contribute some small patches every now
and then if I know I'll get feedback / have them applied.

I would also like to contribute in some meaningful way.  In what way
someone with none wizard knowledge of Scheme can contribute the most to the
project?

I am in the same boat as Taylan and Olivier. My knowledge isn't up to
snuff to be a full fledged maintainer, but I would love to contribute
more.

I'm able to give 5-10 hours per week to whatever tasks we need to keep
things running smoothly.

Triage of bugs and patches is always welcome I guess, and communicating
what needs to be applied/addressed first to whoever can actually commit
it.  That’s one possible way to help.

Thanks,

Where can this be done?  I know that Guix is using debbugs, but do Guile
does the same or is it all tracked on Savannah?

Also, any way to help on the C side?

Guile also uses Debbugs:

It’s happening on debbugs.gnu.org as well.  Debbugs this is easier to
work with via Emacs debbugs.el, which is nice if you already use Emacs
but otherwise unfortunate.

> Also, any way to help on the C side?

There isn’t much happening on the C side.  Maxime Devos submitted
patches adding bindings for openat(2) and friends that are unfortunately
still pending review.

Patches that add POSIX bindings and similar to libguile should in
general be relatively easy to review (though the openat(2) one may be
trickier because it’s a central functionality and we’d rather get the
interface right.)

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I'm not sure how all this ended up.

But, I would encourage and love for Maxime Devos to be a Guile maintainer.
Always great feedback in Guile and other projects (like Fibers) and I
really feel Guile would benefit a lot from their contributions.

Just a thought.

Hi,

Just to mention that Mumi (a web frontend of Debbugs) is serving all GNU
bugs or patches managed by Debbugs.  For one example about Guile,

    <http://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/56665>

Therefore, it could be a drop-in replacement of
<http://bugs.gnu.org/56665> (the venerable Debbugs frontend).


Well, Mumi is written in Guile, so maybe the Guile community could help
to improve the situation for the whole GNU community using the GNU
instance of Debbugs.

Considering this conversation is coming back, I'd mention that I'd be happy
to become a Guile "janitor" (as discussed earlier) with some guidance, as
I've only been using Guile for a year and still learning the internals, but
have some patch series fixing some old bugs I've found.

I could also help with efforts like getting Guile's bug tracker to use
Mumi, and cleaning up various cobwebs -- noble & necessary custodial work :)
