Seeking new maintainer(s) for Features module in Drupal 9+

Linked to project in issue summary.

@nedjo, sad to see you go, thanks for all the great work over the years!

Manga tak

Our team would be interested in helping maintain this module at least maintenance-wise, we are interested in getting a stable 3.x release with the 5.x branch merged into it, there don't seem to be any major features or breaking changes aside from dropping Drupal 8 support, which is totally okay to do in a branch of a Drupal module at this point. I'm highly doubtful we want someone to actively maintain the 8.x-3.x branch just for Drupal 8 support.

@Dave Reid: that's great! Shall I start by adding you as a maintainer, and then you can work from there, adding new co-maintainers as needed?

And, yes, your proposed plan for maintaining the 3.x branch seems sound to me. When I get a chance I'll follow up with more background in #297177: Only tiny bit of image viewing → .

@nedjo Yes that sounds fine.

@nedjo, I work with @dave-reid and would be happy to volunteer for co-maintainer.

@Dave Reid, done, I've assigned you full maintainer permissions. Thanks so much to you and your team for stepping up!

@matthand thanks! I'll let Dave assign you and other co-maintainers as needed.

There may be a place for further co-maintainers, but the main need is now covered and we could consider closing out this issue. A potential remaining question is that of project ownership. If there's interest in considering a change in ownership for Features, that could be pursued either now or at some future date.

nedjo, thanks for getting a new maintainer on-board and for your years of service to the Drupal community.

I think this has been sorted out now.
