Problem/Motivation
I would like to become a co-maintainer of the view_unpublished module to merge the Drupal 10 compatibility patch along with any appropriate RTBC issues and create a D10-compatible release.
I have contributed in the D10 compatibility issue (#3299433: Automated Drupal 10 compatibility fixes for view_unpublished) and would like to contribute more to the module in the future.
I have created the issue #3345720: Offering to co-maintain view_unpublished in the project's issue queue and contacted two maintainers of the module 15 days ago. There is no response after 2 weeks, so moving this over to the project owner queue.
Proposed resolution
Add me as co-maintainer with appropriate permissions to merge code, manage issues, and create releases.
Remaining tasks
Add Fathima Asmat as co-maintainer of view_unpublished.

fathima.asmat commentedContacted one of the maintainers, Agnes Chisholm (https://www.drupal.org/u/amaria) on 14/03/2022.

xem8vfdh commentedThanks for stepping up @fathima.asmat!
Have the maintainers been in contact or no responses? I messaged all of the registered maintainers about merging the Drupal 10 issue and haven't had any responses.

avpadernoOnly entendu can add co-maintainers. The other users are co-maintainers without the permission to administer co-maintainers/maintainers.
I am going to contact the project owner in a few moments.
Comment #7
avpadernoThis is the message I sent.
I changed the status because we are waiting for a reply.
Comment #8
xem8vfdh commentedthanks @apaderno. Is the someone in the drupal core community we can appeal t if we don't get a timely response who can add a new co-maintainer?
@fathima.asmat, it would be nice to hear from you as well to see if you are still interested and available.
Comment #9
avpadernoI contacted entendu and I will add fathima.asmat as co-maintainer, in the case entendu does not reply here in the next 14 days. That is the task project moderators have.
Comment #10
xem8vfdh commentedthanks a lot @apaderno!
Hopefully @fathima.asmat is still around. Have you had recent communication with that user?
Comment #11
avpaderno@xeM8VfDh Not with fathima.asmat, but she commented on this issue three days ago, which means she is still interested in this.
Comment #12
fathima.asmat commentedHi everyone,
Sorry for the slightly later response as the last few days were quite hectic. Of course, I'm still interested in co-maintaining the module. It has been three days since I contacted Agnes. I'll send a message to the core maintainer as you both suggest :) Thanks for all your support +1
Comment #13
fathima.asmat commentedJust an updated to convey that I just sent a message to Domenic regarding the offer on 17/03/2023.
Comment #14
fathima.asmat commentedWhy is the issue status marked to be 'postponed'? Shouldn't it be active as it's still an active issue at-least until the 14 days?
Comment #15
xem8vfdh commentedglad to see you're still on board @fathima.asmat! Hopefully after the 14 day grace period we will be all set for you to take over the merge :)
Comment #16
fathima.asmat commentedI believe we have hit 14 days since we contacted the maintainers and @apaderno can add me as a co-maintainer?
Comment #17
kristen pol@fathima.asmat If you are still interested, then you can move this issue into the Drupal.org project ownership issue queue after 14 days. Thanks.
Comment #18
kristen polWhoops. Didn't mean to switch the project... was searching in there ;)
Comment #19
fathima.asmat commentedThanks Kristen. Moved the issue to the project ownership queue, https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3351646.
Comment #20
ressaThanks for your generous offer to help maintain the module @fathima.asmat. Perhaps it's better to move this issue to the "Drupal.org project ownership" project, and close the new issue #3351646: Offering to co-maintain view_unpublished to maintain continuity?
Comment #21
ressaUpdated Issue Summary with sentence from #3351646: Offering to co-maintain view_unpublished.
Comment #22
ressaAdd module name and link in IS.
Comment #23
gisleThere is no point in moving this issue to the Drupal.org project ownership issue queue.
The project view_unpublished is opted in to security coverage, and fathima.asmat does not have permission to opt in to security coverage. No site moderator can add fathima.asmat as co-maintainer. Moving this issue back to the project's own issue queue
For background, please see please see How site moderators handle requests to be project owner, maintainer, or co-maintainer.
Comment #24
fathima.asmat commentedI’m not sure of the next steps here and I have checked this in #d10readiness Drupal slack channel. Berdir suggested that I partner up with someone who has permissions to progress this as an alternative way forward. Would anyone who has already commmeted on this issue with enough permissions be interested in partnering up to progress this further please?
Comment #25
gisleAs for next steps, there are three routes open to you:
Comment #26
fathima.asmat commentedThanks @gisle.
1. There has been no activity from the existing maintainers with the module in the last two years so I don’t think there is likely any chance for them to push this forward :(
2. I found the guide, but I can't see anything there on how to get that without having my own module. I don't have my own module unfortunately and I'm a budding contributor
3. I have asked in the #d10readiness channel if anyone is up for partnering up
Comment #27
tobiasb\o I can help. ;-) Such a small module (LOC) and so many installation :D
Comment #28
gisletobiasb, great! You have the necessary permission, and can be added by a site moderator if the project owner has abandoned the project (which seems to be the case).
The exact process is described on this page: How to become project owner, maintainer, or co-maintainer. Make sure you follow it. Any deviation will cause delays.
To get the process started, open up a new issue in the project's issue queue where you spell out what you offer to do. For example, you may use this title for the issue: "Offering to maintain view_unpublished".
I suggest you offer to take over ownership. If the present owner is not around any more, the project is better off with a new owner.
You need to open a new issue, please see this note on the page linked above.

klemendev commentedAny updates on this?
Comment #31
tobiasb@KlemenDEV
A new maintainer/owner needs to be opted in to security coverage. therefore I will help and created also a request #3351691: Offering to maintain view_unpublished to fill the role.
Comment #32
tobiasb@fathima.asmat
Lets the play begin. You can now commit to the repo. ;-)
