Hi, Barrett Langton (bdlangton) and Daniel Behrman (dbehrman),

I'm looking to take over the Notifier (notifier) namespace in order to implement Symfony Notifier functionality for Drupal.

I already develop and maintain functionality-adjacent projects at SMS Framework SM (Symfony Messenger), for which this namespace will integrate with.

I see bdlangton is the project owner, while dbehrman is the last person to commit. The last commit was 10 years ago, for Drupal 6.

Since there hasnt been any updates for any supported version of Drupal, I believe its safe for me to take over the projects.

I do see there is some issue with the project's website namespace. It seems to have gotten https://www.drupal.org/project/notifier-0 somehow. So I'd be looking to have this issue repaired during the takeover request.

Issue title and scope per https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/managing-a-drupalorg-theme-module-or...

dpi created an issue. See original summary.

I sent this to dbehrman today.

bdlangton has a disabled contact form.

Both users are not active in the community, so I expect this request to elapse and move into the site mainainers queue.

I understand you may not be interested in the Drupal community any longer, for which you may choose to reply or disregard

The typical 2 week period has passed, though I'll grant extra time due to this special time period.

Component: Maintaining offer » Ownership transfer

Transferring as plenty of time and notice has passed.

Intent to fully take over and remove existing maintainers as there is no lineage from the old project at all.

Thanks @avpaderno, does that mean you've contacted them directly?

I will contact the project maintainer between 40 minutes, when I will return to my computer. Apart from the project owner, we need to know from the other maintainers if they are still maintaining the existing project.

This is message I sent to the project owner.

Hello Barret,

I am contacting you because dpi (https://www.drupal.org/u/dpi) created an issue to take over Notifier (https://www.drupal.org/project/notifier-0), a project you created for which you are project owner and maintainer, to create a different project which uses the same namespace.

May you post a comment on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3494214 about accepting or declining the offer? Please do not reply via email; we need a reply on the offer issue.
Without a comment posted on that issue in the next 14 days, dpi will be probably made the new project owner and be able to commit the new project.

Project moderators will not change the existing maintainers/co-maintainers.
The purpose of requests to take over a namespace is to commit code for a different project, not creating a Drupal 9/10/11 release of an existing project; the new project could even have a totally different purpose.

Best regards,
Alberto Paderno

This is the message I sent to one of the maintainers. (The other maintainers got a similar message.)

Hello Daniel,

I am contacting you because dpi (https://www.drupal.org/u/dpi) created an issue to take over Notifier (https://www.drupal.org/project/notifier-0), a project for which you are maintainer, to create a different project which uses the same namespace.

May you post a comment on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3494214 saying if you are still maintaining the project? The decision to accept the taking over is for the project owner, but the project owner could need to know if other maintainers have any plan for the existing project. A comment from you about that is well appreciated.

The status has been changed because we are waiting for a reply.
Please post a comment after 14 days, if your offer has not been declined. It will show you are still interested in maintaining this project and it will serve as reminder an action is required for this offer.

Hello! Feel free to take over the namespace. We have no intention of making any more updates to it.

Thanks all.

Removing existing maintainers per above

@avpaderno is the project name issue "notifier-0" in IS, something you can address?

avpaderno’s picture

project/notifier was an alias used for a project that has been deleted. I deleted that path alias and renamed the path alias used for this project.
