Offering to maintain Edit UUID

Created on 4 February 2025, 2 months ago

Multiple attempts have been to contact Karthikeyan Manivasagam (@karthikeyan-manivasagam) for several months now.

@makbay opened 💬 Offering to co-maintain Edit UUID (edit_uuid) Active back on 2024/12/6, but was rejected as a maintainer as he has not been vetted. I tried reaching out to @karthikeyan-manivasagam myself. No response. I could not find an account for him in any of the Drupal Slacks.

Karthikeyan's LinkedIn Profile shows that he changed jobs ~6 months ago (https://www.linkedin.com/in/karthikeyan-manivasagam-8860323a/)

There are 4 issues in https://www.drupal.org/project/issues/edit_uuid → that are RTBC going back 2+ years including the lack of a version with D10 support.

I'm still not entirely sure how much we will use this module at the University of Denver, but I'm not willing to use process as an excuse to deny potential contributions from other developers. If I do nothing more than merge the RBTC issues into a D10 release before someone else steps up to take the project over, it will still be progress.

    A week has passed, still no response from the project's maintainers.

    If there is still no response next week, I'll move the issue to https://www.drupal.org/project/issues/projectownership →

    Attempts to reach out to the maintainer of this project started back on 2024/12/6. I only got involved a few weeks ago, but there has been no response to this request after 2 weeks either.

    As I have required security related requirements, I'd like to take over maintaining this module so a release for D10 can be created.

    This is the message I sent.

    Hello Karthikeyan,

    I am contacting you because Kevin ( https://www.drupal.org/u/kreynen → ) offered to become maintainer for Edit UUID ( https://www.drupal.org/project/edit_uuid → ), a project you created for which you are project owner and maintainer.

    May you post a comment on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3504391 📌 Offering to maintain Edit UUID Needs review about accepting or declining the offer? Please do not reply via email; we need a reply on the offer issue.
    Without a comment posted on that issue in the next 14 days, Kevin will be probably made maintainer.

    Project moderators will not remove the existing maintainers/co-maintainers; the project owner will not be replaced either. Maintainers cannot change the project owner; co-maintainers/maintainers can only be removed/added by people who have the permission to administer co-maintainers/maintainers.

    As last note: This offer is about being maintainer, which is different from being co-maintainer. A maintainer is a person who has all the drupal.org permissions on a project: Write to VCS, Edit project, Administer maintainers, Maintain issues, Administer releases. A person who does not have all those permissions is a co-maintainer.
    If there is any reason for not giving all those permissions, please explain that on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3504391 📌 Offering to maintain Edit UUID Needs review . We need this to know it was intentional and not a misunderstanding on what the offer required.

    Best regards,
    Alberto Paderno
    -- Drupal.org project moderator
    -- Drupal.org site moderator

    The status has been changed because we are waiting for a reply.
    Please post a comment after 14 days, if your offer has not been declined. It will show you are still interested in maintaining this project and it will serve as reminder an action is required for this offer.

    Since multiple people have been making attempts to contact Karthikeyan for months through every channel possible, I'm going to assume you are not going to get a response either.

    If there is no response, is there anything else that needs torelease.

    I created MR for the pending RBTC issues. As soon as I am given the permissions, I'll merge those and role a working D10 release.

    Usually, they reply when contacted from a project moderator. If they do not reply, I made the changes described in the message I send them.

    Still waiting for them to reply?

    I would really like to move this forward and get a D10 compatible release packaged this week with the fixes that are already RTBC and queued up with MRs in GitLab.

    Not sure if this was the right thing to do to get eyes on this, but I've changed the status to Active.

    I added kreynen as maintainer.
