http:BL has been automatically opened to new maintainer applications, as it has releases for Drupal 8 which will be marked unsupported on 2 Nov, 2021, but no release yet for Drupal 9. Your Drupal 7 releases will not be affected.

This is an adaptation of our existing process for transferring project maintainership.

After the standard 14-day waiting period from this issue being opened, and if an existing maintainer has not closed it, this project becomes eligible for new maintainers. Those new maintainers will not need to wait for existing maintainer approval.

Next steps:

  • An existing maintainer may close this issue and opt out of this accelerated process.
  • A prospective new maintainer can take this issue after the 14 day window has elapsed and take the following steps to be added as a maintainer:
    • Comment here explaining why you would like to maintain the module.
    • If the project is opted in to security coverage, confirm that you have previously received security coverage opt-in permission.
    • If an existing maintainer has not commented, move the issue to the Drupal.org Project Ownership queue, by editing the “Project” field on this issue.
  • The Drupal.org site moderators will review the issue, and if it meets the requirements can grant you maintainer access.

What is the best alternative to this module?

Commenting to take over as maintainer.

Comment here explaining why you would like to maintain the module.

Mostly, users just need to be able to install this module on Drupal 9+ without resorting to workarounds. It works fine, but the .info file is set to only allow D8, meaning we need to do something like "drupal/core": "9.4.2 as 8.9.13", in composer.json.

If the project is opted in to security coverage, confirm that you have previously received security coverage opt-in permission.

I've previously received security coverage opt-in permission
