Hello all, I would like to ask for the merge rights on https://github.com/jenkinsci/instant-messaging-plugin/ and https://github.com/jenkinsci/ircbot-plugin as others and myself have done a number of PRs for them (community reviews would also be very welcome!) with improvements that work for us locally - but at a risk of discrepancy when/if the upstream plugins march on without these changes, and also the user community at large does not yet benefit from the working solutions (and we don't benefit from someone discovering glaring bugs and omissions ;) ).
Just as well, if anyone more qualified with Java (I am not confident reviewing other people's PRs in matters that I don't understand well) and with more time available than myself would step up to *really *maintain these plugins and review code submissions, I'm all for it. As before, my github and Jenkins LDAP and Jenkins JIRA accounts are all "jimklimov". Aside from some of my improvements to make the IRCbot interface for build monitoring and management a bit better, there is the pipeline integration for instant messaging (IRC works for us, there is also a stale Jabber PR at https://github.com/jenkinsci/jabber-plugin/pull/18 that got out of sync - I used its codebase for IRC so can say the logic works, but we don't have a server to test or use the solution against). The currently assigned instant-messaging and ircbot plugin maintainer Christoph Kutzinski @kutzi signed off in https://github.com/jenkinsci/ircbot-plugin/pull/21 suggesting to ask here on the list: > I'm still listed as maintainer for this plugin, but I'm not really acting anymore - sorry. As I'm not part of the jenkins-dev mailing list anymore, I cannot even ask to remove me as maintainer from the wiki page ... That being said: I think you'll have the best chances if you ask on the jenkins-dev mailing list for support. Maybe someone else wants to step up as the maintainer? Maybe you want to? Of other recent committers/releasers, Oliver Gondža wrote he is not a maintainer but just technically made latest releases of these plugins, and I do not have information about disposition of Drew DeVault (CCed) except that there were no replies on ircbot PRs open for many weeks now ;) The Jabber plugin mentioned above is, I believe, actively maintained by @Flowdalic (also CCed for completeness). Thanks for listening, Jim Klimov PS: This is a re-post of a message I tried to send from another account, so there I CC'ed Drew DeVault <s...@cmpwn.com>, Florian Schmaus <f...@geekplace.eu> by addresses I found from their GitHub accounts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
