czml3 is looking for new maintainers #112
Comments
cc @Sedictious would you like to step in? |
There are some serious problems that require quick fixes for this package to remain usable in my opinion, specifically #76, #105. Once a maintainer is found I think these problems should be immediately addressed. If a maintainer can't be found I'd be happy to fill in the position, but I'm probably very much under-qualified for the position. If it's of any relevance, I've written a similar library for Julia called CZML.jl. |
To potential forkers, copy the issues from here using https://github.com/gavinr/github-csv-tools. |
Maintainer sounds a bit "heavy" but I want to try to tackle the open issues (though I expect a non-insignificant ramp up time). To clarify, all PRs would need to be opened to the open project correct (if so I could help with creating the fork, cloning the issues and redirecting to the new repo). I understand that this repo will be archived in any case correct? |
I don't intend to archive the repo if anyone wants to step in as maintainer (this is different from what I did in poliastro) |
Are you still looking for a maintainer? I have used czml3 across multiple projects/companies and have a vested interest in keeping it alive and well. Can you briefly explain what is involved in being a maintainer? |
Hi @fbl100 ! With "maintainer" I mean someone who cares about the library, fixes some of the open issues, and as a result of the trust earned by the community earns write access to the repository. There are a few bugs and gaps so feel free to start contributing, I don't have a lot of time to review big PRs but I'll do my best. May I ask what have you used czml3 for? 😊 |
Broadly speaking, I've used it to visualize satellite scheduling results, so showing orbits, models, beams, ground tracks, etc. I have a small batch of updated models that I use for cases where the official library doesn't have support (see: PolylineArrow). It's on my list to gather my changes and submit them as a PR. Not sure if that answers your question, but I'd be interested in becoming a maintainer at some point. |
@Stoops-ML has been making some good contributions lately so I added him to the organization with Triage permissions for now 💪🏼 |
That' great. I've been working on getting my local mods into a PR. Hoping to have it ready for review in the next week or so. |
Just a heads up, @Stoops-ML continued to make consistently good contributions over the past month so now he has write access. The CI is in a much better state now so we're close to tagging a release. |
@astrojuanlu are there any other additions you'd like before a version bump? I've finished all the work that I had planned to do before a version bump. Also, I remember that you had said somewhere that you wanted to bump to v1.0.0 once all the packets have been added to the library. That still true (i.e. next bump is v0.8.0)? |
not really, let's proceed! |
We made a release 🎉 Now what would be awesome to close this ticket would be to have another person review @Stoops-ML PRs that's not just me. Everybody in this thread is welcome to get more involved in that regard, even if you don't have time to author PRs yourself. |
Just when I thought I was going to have time to be a maintainer, I got slammed at work. I can definitely review PR's, and I'll try to find the time (after the release?) to check the current packet definitions against some of the ones that I've made locally over the years. |
Full context: poliastro/poliastro#1640
There's a pending release and a couple of pull requests that need merging. Are there any volunteers to move this project forward?
Please explain your motivation, how you are currently using czml3, and what do you intend to do with it in the future.
