Offering to co-maintain Booking and Availability Management API

Contacted today acrollet asking to add me as maintainer

Yes this module needs some maintenance. Please allow afagioli to co-maintain.

afagioli,
thank you for offering to help out maintaining this!

At least two the maintainers are still around. We need to hear their opinion about this. I've sent a PM asking for them to comment here.

Postponing for now. Please set back to “Active” if there is no response in 14 days.

Setting status to "Postponed" since we're waiting for a reply.

I actually thank you for your promptness, @gisle.

I'm afraid on this project almost no one is pushing much.

As we can read here,
https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/managing-a-drupalorg-theme-module-or... →
times are honored and there's nothing stopping us from moving forward.

Feel free to complete the task with as per your availability.

I am a site moderator, and I am trying to complete the task as described on the page that you link to.

Please read item #6. It says:

Site moderators will normally try to contact the owner as an extra safeguard unless it is evident the owner is no longer active in the Drupal community, giving to the contacted users two weeks for replying to the message they sent via the Contact tab.

Setting it back to "Postponed". You can set it "Active" for me to complete the task if there is no reply by August 7.

Thanks for your review.

Nobody means to rush in any way, clearly. Is to be noted though:

* I contacted owner as first step of this task, 3 months ago.
https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3356057#comment-1... →
* any maintainer - even more if recently active - had notice of this.

I trust your understanding when I read my duties on this task as accomplished.

Looking forward to see more positive energies on the BAT module

Best!

The comment you link to says:

afagioli created an issue. See original summary.

There is nothing there that indicates that you've contacted the owner.

Step #3 in the procedure for being added as a maintainer by a site moderator says:

If you contacted the project owner, or one of the maintainers, report in the issue summary the users who have been contacted for the offer and how. (my emphasis)

There were no such report in the issue summary before I added the Checklist.

I trust your understanding when I read my duties on this task as accomplished.

The issue is "Postponed". You still need to change status to "Active" on August 7 or later, as instructed in comment #10.

I sincerly appreciate your effort and I understand your will to protect.

Is to be noted also when it's about to project ownership we must refer - as I did - to
https://www.drupal.org/node/3328294 → where your extra requirements (maybe reasonable) are not there. I guess you should ask to add the "change status" thing to node/3328294. This is assertive.

"There is nothing there that indicates that you've contacted the owner."
Well, no prove of that is requested. It's a "drupal users contact" message. The one in charge knows how to check. Being kind, I can partially share here it's "20230424144532.A6E****2@w***.drupalsystems.org"

"There is nothing there that indicates that you've contacted the owner."
Well, no prove of that is requested. It's a "drupal users contact" message.

Correct. No proof of that is requested.

However, as I've already said, step #3 in the procedure for being added as a maintainer by a site moderator says:

If you contacted the project owner, or one of the maintainers, report in the issue summary the users who have been contacted for the offer and how. (my emphasis)

There were no such report in your issue summary you created.

I am not trying to be difficult here. But a site moderator overriding the project owner is a very sensitive issues, and if the required prerequisite does not exist, the process cannot proceed.

"There were no such report in your issue summary you created, so you skipped fulfilling this requirement."
Please find at #2 my effort to fulfill the requirement.

It says:

Contacted today acrollet asking to add me as maintainer.

Yes, and have even done you the favor of putting it in the checklist (which is place it is required to be).

However, acrollet is not the project's owner. The owner is named ronald_istos.

Item #2 in https://www.drupal.org/node/3328294 → says:

If enabled, use the Contact tab on the owner profile page to contact the project owner, asking to post a comment on the issue you posted. We need a comment on the issue you opened to see what the decision of the project owner has been. This step is not mandatory, but it can speed up the process to become owner, maintainer, or co-maintainer.

There is no record of you contacting the owner. As noted in the last sentence of the quote, this step is not mandatory. So it is perfectly OK for you to skip it. However, if you skip it, a site moderator will have to so instead. I have now done it, but we have to wait for two weeks to allow the owner time to respond. This is the reason for the delay that frustrates you.

Thanks for these precious clarifications.

Now we know I didn't contact the owner, it's clear it's up to me to follow the thing from 7th Aug.

That was not frustration. It was confusion.

Thanks again and have a great day.

I have added you as maintainer.

Thanks!
