Bartik theme has not had any commits in over three years. I am interested in becoming the maintainer.

On August 9, 2025, I contacted the two current maintainers who have an available "contact" tab and made this offer.

I use this theme and I have contributed to these issues:

#3540020: Enable GitLabCI testing
#3428214: Automated Drupal 11 compatibility fixes for bartik

I will contact the maintainers tomorrow morning. (It's almost 10 PM, here in Italy.)

All the maintainers logged in at least once in the past year.

I contacted jensimmons, the project owner. This is the message I sent.

Hello Jen,

I am contacting you because Liam (https://www.drupal.org/u/liam-morland) offered to become maintainer for Bartik (https://www.drupal.org/project/bartik), a project you created for which you are project owner and maintainer.

May you post a comment on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3544003 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, Liam will be probably made maintainer.

Project moderators will not remove the existing maintainers/co-maintainers; the project owner will not be replaced either. Maintainers cannot change the project owner; co-maintainers/maintainers can only be removed/added by people who have the permission to administer co-maintainers/maintainers.

I am contacting all the people who can administer co-maintainers/maintainers for the project.

As last note: This offer is about being maintainer, which is different from being co-maintainer. A maintainer is a person who has all the drupal.org permissions on a project: Write to VCS, Edit project, Administer maintainers, Maintain issues, Administer releases. A person who does not have all those permissions is a co-maintainer.
If there is any reason for not giving all those permissions, please explain that on https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/3544003. We need this to know it was intentional and not a misunderstanding on what the offer required.

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

I am still contacting the other maintainers.

I have contacted all the maintainers.

The status is Postponed 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.

That sounds good to me. I was part of the efforts to transition Bartik out of core, but do not actually use it (which is also true of at least one of the other maintainers). It will be good for the project to have a maintainer who actively uses it. I'll go ahead and add Liam - I've seen him on D.O. enough to know he's legit 🙂.

@bnjmnm Thank you for the quick answer!

I saw liam has been already added as maintainer, so I am closing this issue as fixed.

Now that this issue is closed, please review the contribution record.

As a contributor, attribute any organization that helped you, or if you volunteered your own time.

Maintainers, please credit people who helped resolve this issue.
