@ekx Please consider merging in pull requests or turning over the app to someone who can manage it at this time. It is sad to let a project like this die, as it is a great foundation and has users on the Play Store.

Yes, I'd like to see this happen too. @Jawnnypoo , @burrito82 , @JosephTurner and others have fixed a number of the issues, perhaps one of those contributors would be a good candidate if @ekx does not have time or inclination?

I suggest that @ekx adds someone as an additional developer with commit/merge rights. This is if he would continue to publish versions to the Play Store. Otherwise, we could just establish a fork as the new main project, but distribution would be a lot more complicated.

I think the fork might have to be the option as far as I can tell, I have tried emailing the developer about 3 times now. Looks like he is not managing the app on the Play Store either, since he has yet to give it a rating.

It's been over a month now folks, I think it's acceptable to assume @ekx won't be continuing development of this. From a cursory glance at the "network" (https://github.com/ekx/GitLabAndroid/network) page, @Jawnnypoo looks like he has made the furthest progress in fixing problems, might I tentatively suggest using that fork as the one to base development efforts on? There are a few other patches from other forks which it would be useful to merge in as well. Any suggestions, comments, problems?

I agree, and I have forked the repo. I have merged most of the pull requests in this repo:

Fantastic, good to see. Now, is there any way to export the issues from the ekx repo to the commit451 repo?

robinpaulson avatar Jul 28 '15 06:07 robinpaulson

I have replicated most of the pull requests that are on this project, but I have not transferred the issues yet. I will get to that today. I also plan on releasing to the app store soon so that the app can gain traction so that others are not downloading the unmaintained version.

Great news! :+1:

It is worth mentioning on this issue, in case anyone stumbles across it, that the fork repo has been moved here: https://gitlab.com/Commit451/LabCoat

And that fork has now been included in f-droid also.
