    I am closing this offer, since there are not been any follow-up action as described in Offering to become a project owner, maintainer, or co-maintainer .

    Hi @apaderno

    Was there a follow up item I was supposed to work on? If the action was waiting for the current maintainer to respond, well they haven't been active on this module for 4 years.

    I don't mind not being maintainer of this module, as I created a work around not to need it for Drupal 10, but I wasn't aware there was any thing else needed of me to apply to be co-maintainer.

    Was there a follow up item I was supposed to work on?

    Please read this page: How to become project owner, maintainer, or co-maintainer .

    It describes six actions you need to perform in order to be made a co-maintainer – which is the role you request in the issue summary (contradicting the original title, where you offer to become maintainer.

    You have failed to complete follow-up action #6 on that list.

  • 🇮🇪Ireland markconroy

    Yep, looks like I missed doing that. I'm happy for my application to be withdrawn since I am not using this module currently on project.

    Note for future applications, rather than a blanket "I am closing this offer, since there are not been any follow-up action as described in ..." message, we could do something like:

    "Hi Mark,

    There's 6 steps to becoming a project maintainer. You haven't completed step 6 yet. If you are still interested in being a maintainer, can you get that completed. If not, will we close this issue."

    I think that might be friendlier for those offering to maintain projects.

    @markconroy, in #5 you mention that you created a work around, is that work around simply uninstalling the module like you mention here 📌 Automated Drupal 10 compatibility fixes Needs work and from there maintain the taxonomy yourself in your project? Or is there something more to it?

    P.S. I agree with your statement in #7, the message could very much be improved like you suggest ;-)

  • 🇮🇪Ireland markconroy

    @Frontmobe, yes I uninstalled the module and just left the taxonomy intact.

    However, be careful. If you uninstall the module it will also delete the vocabulary, so you need to go the the countries_info.install file and comment out the part that will delete the vocabulary. Then you can uninstall the module and remove it from your codebase.

    Thanks @markconroy, then that is what we are going to do here as well, cheers!
