Thanks

There is no alpha or beta version available, so Status back to Needs work.
See the project details for description on using Status for these issues!

Hi @mmjvb,

Once the code is reviewed we can go for a alpha/beta release. Correct me if I am wrong.

Already did, and again.
See the description of this project for correct usage of Status here.
This is not an issue of the module queue!

Hi @mmjvb,

I think the module maintainer has to do this as I don't have the access for it. Lets wait.

Unfortunately the module maintainer is not very active. Suggest to follow the procedure for abandoned module to get attention for this module.

HI @mmjvb,

I have created a beta release at https://github.com/malaynayak/entity_delete_log_d8/releases/tag/v8.0-beta1. Please review.

Hi @mmjvb, I'm not in a position to review this atm. but I agree with mmjvb. There is nothing requiring the maintainer of the module to track this issue, because it is not their queue.

You need to create your code as a patch against 7.x (if there is no 8.x branch created yet) and attached to #2922764: Port Entity Delete Log to Drupal 8. And then we need to take the conversation over to that issue. If you believe the maintainer will not respond, then you can open a separate ticket in the issue queue requesting to take over the project:

Read https://www.drupal.org/node/251466 for details on how to do that.

No need to create a patch against D7. You can request the maintainer to assess your port and make it available on d.o.
He should be able to create the D8 branch and classify your work as dev, alpha, beta, rc or even stable. Consider making your port available as dev release on d.o. the minimum to facilitate those interested in working on a D8 version.

An active maintainer would not needed to be asked. Which is why I suggested to follow procedure for abandoned modules. Maybe you are interested to become co-maintainer, possibly only for D8 version. Maybe others are interested.

Me reviewing your port is of very little value, not being a maintainer of any module and not even a user of this module. When current maintainers don't show any interest, don't expect others to.
Despite this, I had a look at the code. Don't know whether it meets the coding standards, but don't like your use of comments. Comments should explain something that is not quite obvious from the code. Saw too many comments that have no added value.

Based on feedback above, moving this back to needs work. I would also point out that your README.txt doesn't follow the typical Drupal standards.
