Re: Getting a project back on track

2024-03-29 Thread Michael Sokolov
I guess it depends on what the problem with the project is. It seems implicit in your ideas that the project has lost momentum; nobody is contributing to it or maintaining it actively? But I just want to point out there can be other problems that might need correction with different solutions (too

Hi I'm curious about the whole idea of local ASF chapters. It's not something I'm familiar with. I guess the idea is a local presence of some kind? Do any exist in the US? EU? Elsewhere? What do they do? Meetups, I guess? Do they also maintain separate parallel online communities? On Mon, Dec 4, 2

Perhaps if we used the information in these files to drive creation of the board report templates in whimsy, projects would have some stronger incentive to keep them up to date? Or ... maybe we do that already? I'm not sure though because for example we provide https://git-wip-

Have you tried contacting the individual projects via their mailing lists? Apache projects run themselves with only minimal oversight from Apache foundation, and we don't maintain any kind of centralized compatibility matrix. However the projects you mention can probably help you find out what you
