------------------- UPDATE 2025-03-14

We have waited 2 weeks since posting this offer to take over the Intranet project. We have also attempted to contact the current owner/maintainers, but we have received no response so far. We are still interested in becoming the new owner of this project and continuing its development.

Following the guidelines at https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/managing-a-drupalorg-theme-module-or..., we are now moving this issue to the Drupal.org project ownership queue so that the moderators can review our request.
Thank you

------------------- ORIGINAL POST
Hello,

We are Droptica, a Drupal agency from Poland with a strong track record of maintaining open-source Drupal projects. For example, we developed and actively maintain the Droopler distribution ( https://www.drupal.org/project/droopler ) since 2018.
We also have public announcements ( https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7297976944640360448/ ) about a new Intranet solution we’ve built on Drupal, which we are planning to share with the community.

We noticed that this Intranet project ( https://www.drupal.org/project/intranet ) has had no recent commits or active maintenance for about 10 years. We would like to offer our help to take ownership of this namespace and continue its development as an open-source Intranet distribution for Drupal.

Our distribution is almost ready (we plan to finalize the code within the next 3-6 weeks). We have a dedicated team and a strong commitment to providing regular updates, security fixes, and support for the community—similarly to how we handle our Droopler project. We have already attempted to reach out to the current owner via email (today) kindly requesting their feedback or approval.

If the current owner or any active maintainer is still around, we would be grateful if they could respond here within two weeks. If no response is received by that time, we will follow the guidelines outlined at
https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/managing-a-drupalorg-theme-module-or...
and move this issue to the Drupal.org project ownership queue.

Thank you for your consideration. We look forward to maintaining and evolving the Intranet project for the benefit of the Drupal community.

Best regards,
Grzegorz Bartman

Currently, the project is in a private repository.
Here you can see quick demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Y_NHEpFXkU

Here we will publish it on Wednesday/Thursday for testing https://www.drupal.org/sandbox/grzegorzbartman/3513334

We want to publish it as a distribution to have a usage statistics page (like we have with Droopler https://www.drupal.org/project/usage/droopler), so it is important to know what namespace we will have :) As I know namespace on drupal.org should be the same as the installation profile name in the code in the git repository.

I mean the project on drupal.org for which you want to be the new project owner.

We'd like to use this namespace https://www.drupal.org/project/intranet

This is the message I sent.

Hello Juan,

I apologize: The previous message I sent was not correct. This is the correct one. Please disregard the previous message.

I am contacting you because Grzegorz (https://www.drupal.org/u/grzegorzbartman) offered to become the new project owner for Intranet (https://www.drupal.org/project/intranet), a project you created for which you are project owner and sole maintainer.

May you post a comment on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3509142 about accepting or declining the request? Please do not reply via email; we need a reply on the issue.
Without a comment posted on that issue in the next 14 days, Grzegorz will be probably made the new project owner and be able to make commits to the project.

Project moderators will not remove the existing maintainers/co-maintainers; they will leave the old project owner as project maintainer.

As last note: This is an offer to become the new project owner; it is not a request for being added as maintainer. A project owner is a project maintainer who cannot be removed from other maintainers, and who can remove all the existing maintainers/co-maintainers.

Best regards,
Alberto Paderno
-- Drupal.org project moderator
-- Drupal.org site moderator

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 everyone
Unfortunately, I am unable to accept the request to change the project owner:

This project contains modules that are still used in some government institutions in my country, and its location within drupal.org is a commonly used reference for them (government institutions).
Additionally, a version that works for Drupal 10.x is currently in testing and will be released to this project https://www.drupal.org/project/intranet in the near future.

With this comment I reject the change of ownership of the Intranet project (https://www.drupal.org/project/intranet).

Regards
Juan Vizcarrondo

Thank you for your response! I understand the situation. If anything changes in the future, please let me know – we'd be happy to help or take over the project.

By the way, our own intranet is already available as open source, so the community can freely use it.
