NOTE: I have not only sent emails, but I have also called on the
telephone to speak to Eric -- all to no avail.
As hesitant as I am to "steal" a project from anyone, I am prepared to
move on redirecting the DNS to other servers that can be more actively
maintained. (Remember, I have control of the DNS servers -- at least as
defined at the registrar. So, so long as the entries at the registrar
still point to my servers, we have significant control over the domain).
However, I think a more appropriate location to hold this discussion
would be the qmailtoaster-devel list (which I have copied).
If you are on the qmailtoaster-devel mail list, please continue the
discussion there.
Thanks

Making copy of centos6 for local use now :(
Looks like we need at least two leaders with all access, that will not
disappear simultaneously.

Hello
I'm sorry my English is not good.
I have QMT since 2003, actually 2015 - 2003 = 12 years. That's a long
time.
I would be very unhappy if the project did not continue
Website of the project seem dead. the only living thing is
email-list. I was so unhappy after new information on the
continuation and CentOS7, so I volunteered email-list. Information
gained and QMT on CentOS7 comfortably installed, without compiling,
without complications. I configured a přemigroval old QMT. It works.
I'm happy.
Plenty of other administrators would be happy if the project and
website relaunched and updated.
I can provide mirror web hosting for the web. I fear the end of QMT
several years, so I have a backup

Good luck finding Eric "Shubes", please choose a successor to
continue the project. I do not end up project.

Thanks Dan! I will help in any way I can as well, just say the word.
Shubes, hope all is well with you.

I have tried contacting "Shubes" several times over the past few
months, to no avail. He's either busy or incapacitated. It has been
since before the new year that he was last heard from here, or
privately.
I have control of the DNS, so if we want to move anything we can --
we just can't make any actual changes to the domain registration.
The domain registration was renewed this past May, but I strongly
suspect that was an automated transaction. I am already listed on
the registration as the Tech ID, so if Eric is incapacitated we
should be able to convince DynDNS (the registrar) to let us in --
but other than renewing it, there really doesn't need to be
anything changed there.
There are likely also "accounts" (git?) that may need to be
"recovered".
Never the less, it is time to regain some direction and progress
... so, I will try again to reach Eric. I am not comfortable just
"taking" the project from him, but agree that there are many
changes and updates that need to be incorporated. (Not the least of
which is both "official" COS6 & COS7 support.)
I have the expertise to take "ownership" of the project, but not
really that much available time. Never the less, just as Jake (the
original "master" of the QMT project) chose his successor, I would
imagine it will be up to Eric to choose his.

Johannes,
Thanks! I'm really not sure how to proceed at this point. I suppose I
should contact EricS again and ask his status. I'm fairly sure
that he
gets the email from the qmailtoaster list so if you're out there
EricS
please let us know your thoughts and/or status. As QMT lead EricS
knows
a heck of a lot more than I do concerning everything Qmail and it
would
be sad if he weren't lead of the project any longer as I don't feel
adequate to take the project over. I'm wondering if the wiki like the
mirrors couldn't, or shouldn't, be spread over multiple servers
and that
wouldn't burden you with sole responsibility for hosting. This is the
primary reason I would like to get my CentOS 7/QMT rpms to the QMT
mirrors. This way if something were to happen to anyone of us, the
community would not burdened with the prospect of putting everything
back together in their absence. I think it also wise to have multiple
people in the QMT community able to access the domain registrar
(and the
QMT domain for the same reason). Anyway, those are my thoughts.

Eric,
we should ask Eric Shubert to hand it all over; I could offer to
take
over the domain and also the hosting.
Best regards,

Edwin,
IMHO, yes, CentOS 6 is stable. I'm using it in production. I
think it
would be a good idea to add it to the wiki.
However, I'm not sure of the wiki's status. Someone's paying for
the
domain name, I'm not sure who that is or how long he/she will be
doing so.
