Offering to maintain the oEmbed module

+1 for transferring maintainership of the module to dman.
Dman actively maintains a number of Drupal modules, and would be a good steward for taking this module forward.

+1

+1, I just had to custom implement this. Using "alb/oembed": "^1.1" and an adjusted version of the filter, it "just works" for Filter plugin.

use Drupal\filter\FilterProcessResult;

 * Provides a fallback placeholder filter to use for missing filters.
 *
 * The filter system uses this filter to replace missing filters (for example,
 * if a filter module has been disabled) that are still part of defined text
 * formats. It returns an empty string.
 *
 * @Filter(
 *   id = "oembed",
 *   title = @Translation("oEmbed filter"),
 *   description = @Translation("Embeds content for oEmbed-enabled web addresses and turns the rest, and e-mail addresses, into clickable links."),
 *   type = Drupal\filter\Plugin\FilterInterface::TYPE_MARKUP_LANGUAGE,
 *   settings = {
 *     "options" = "",
 *     "autoembed" = true

@mglaman Can you please explain a little what your code actually does?

@ugintl it's a Filter plugin that provides oEmbed functionality. It's the current port's filter using a different library which is actively supported.

When using "alb/oembed": "^1.1", I had full migration support of oEmbed from D7 -> D8 in my personal blog using that filter, also found https://github.com/mglaman/glamanate.com/blob/master/web/modules/custom/....

This module could easily have an 8.x beta by just changing to a supported library.

Do we have an update on this?
+1 for transferring maintainership of the module to dman.

It has been almost a year since the offer was first made, the official policy for dealing with abandoned projects says to wait two weeks and then transfer the issue to the Project Ownership queue.

this could use a tagged release for the various branches, DMan are you still interested?

The project link is https://www.drupal.org/project/oEmbed. I am changing status, waiting for a response from @dman.

I also sent a message to the user who is the current project owner.

Hello Pelle,

I am writing you because Dan (https://www.drupal.org/u/dman) offered to maintain the oEmbed module. Ma you reply to https://www.drupal.org/project/projectownership/issues/2884829 within two weeks? If there aren't replies, the project ownership will be probably passed to Dan.

Best regards,
kiamlaluno
-- Drupal.org webmaster
-- Drupal.org Git maintainer

Notice that, while I asked to reply within two weeks, that doesn't mean any action will be taken right when two weeks are passed.

I apologize for the delay in replying here. I got an email message as reply to mine, and I read it right today, after setting back my email client.

Sure, pass it on, I’m no longer active in the Drupal world.

Do you need me to do anything?

/ Pelle

If there are other users who are interested, let me know it. I don't see any reply from dman, so I am not sure he wants to be maintainer of the module.

Let's see if there are users who will to being the new maintainers. If there aren't volunteers, I think the module should be marked as not supported.

If you can't find anyone else I will take maintainership of oembed and see what I can help push along.
just don't expect miracles for the next 4 months because I am very committed until April 1st.

I am setting this issue as postponed until April first, 2019.

@joseph.olstad Is your offer still valid?

ya sure I'll take ownership of it. I have a D7 client right now using media.

Thanks in advance

I changed ownership as requested.
