Looking for new maintainer

Open mvexel opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I started this project to scratch an itch and have done my best to maintain it, but I simply don't have the time anymore. The project seems well liked and used, and I think it's a shame that it's poorly maintained. So I'm looking for someone else to take ownership. Let me know if you're interested and we can chat.

Hi Martijn, can you explain what your would be the role of that person, what would be your expectation for the maintainer.

The project maintainer needs to be in complete charge of the future direction of the project, including roadmap planning, architectural decisions, issue and PR review, and actively collaborating with the other active contributors.

Some things that you will definitely need:

  • Great Python programming skills
  • Understanding of the Python ecosystem (to assess dependencies, Python versions to support
  • Understanding of testing / TDD
  • Good knowledge of the Overpass API
  • Experience as an OSS maintainer, preferably in the geospatial / OSM domain

I have most of these things, just not the time to properly apply them to this project. But my personal situation has changed a bit so I can devote a bit more time to this project again, so no rush for the moment!
