Marks Chaos Butler plugin as up or adoption

I propose to mark the Chaos Butler plugin as up for adoption, because:

  • no developer is listed in https://github.com/jenkins-infra/repository-permissions-updater/blob/8253c2e335a6479630dbfe679b2ee06e63a09fdc/permissions/plugin-chaos-butler.yml#L8
  • there was one release done 7years ago with no additional work
  • there is no activity on the open pull requests

Please set the topic on the repository instead, that scales a lot better than this centrally controlled metadata file 😉

I would agree but I don't have access to the repository. Be to fair, this is also because we are still not automatically marking plugin with no developers as abandoned. The jenkins.io page about adopting a plugin mention this as an alternative..

There is more than 300 plugins with no developers referenced, I'd rather not open that many pull request. Maybe this is a discussion to have on the mailing list.

(Opened this one to focus attention on the situation)

Fix https://github.com/jenkins-infra/repository-permissions-updater/issues/2911 and we can do that 😉

This is awkward:

set the topic on the repository instead

https://github.com/jenkinsci/chaos-butler-plugin/ has the label, but due to https://github.com/jenkinsci/chaos-butler-plugin/commit/845d6b0b0b27ba2a6e02afca972f2b520e9b5993 being unreleased, it's ineffective.

I guess this is another good reason to have the label added directly on the update-center, no?

Might be a case for https://github.com/jenkins-infra/update-center2/blob/master/resources/wiki-overrides.properties to also fix the broken GH link from https://plugins.jenkins.io/chaos-butler/

Alternatively I could try to rename the GH repo back and forth to create a redirect. 🤔

It's odd that the redirect is not already in place. I don't know the history of the renaming, was it from the hosting already?
