Call for pypi package co-maintainer

[miurahr]

This is a proposal for project administration.

aqtinstall has been started as personal project, and now many users use it for their projects. I would like to call co-mainainer of pypi.org repository for a project contingency plan against a risk on me.

Only an owner of pypi.org repository can add maintainer permission to other users.

From https://pypi.org/help/#collaborator-roles

Maintainer: Can upload releases for a package. Cannot add collaborators. Cannot delete files, releases, or the project.

There are two repositories: test.pypi.org and pypi.org. I will add you as maintainer.

What co-maintainer should do when original author had gone?

All processes are automated on github actions, so only thing maintainer is

1. fork or transfer the repository
2. setup azure pipelines
3. set pypi token secret to github secret configuration, PYPI_PASSWORD and TESTPYPI_PASSWORD

Why now call?

Original author just got COVID and recognize a project issue :)
