I came on as a maintainer for Download File a few months ago to help address an unresolved security issue. It seemed like a good candidate for my first D8 module port.dru

I have a functional (but with currently only one formatter) version in a sandbox. Aiming to have it done in the next week or two.

Hi. thanx for the "headstart" :)
I worked on the module, added some stuff, applied code guidelines etc.
Where can I put my code?
Here? In the issues of the sandbox?
Until now I just added patches...

Nice! I created an 8.x dev branch you can work from https://www.drupal.org/node/846290/git-instructions/8.x-1.x/

Create a new issue in the DownloadFile queue and include a patch with your changes and give it a general title like "gngn early contributions to 8.x port".

Include a description of thechanges you've made. In the unlikely event of there being a need to split the changes into multiple issues, I'll take care of it & make sure you're properly credited in each.

I'm excited to see what you've done!

Thank you - I did not find the time to look at it.
But I will!

I did a code review today and from this i'd say it can go beta. I have some ideas to extend it for images and image styles (working on a "download different resolutions" table) and will come back later...!

Per axel.rutz's comment about a year ago, would it possible to tag a beta release?

Good to come back to this. I have made substantial development extending this for images too, refactoring and cleanup, and as a key project depends on this i will care for the module. See my other modules for references.

So i hereby apply as comaintainer.

My sandbox with the work:

Considering the lack of response, suggest to file an issue in the project itself concerning your offer to co-maintain.
