Thanks for the patch. I will be talking to Mark Carver, so that we can replace dreditor.org with dreditor.github.io Some background |
Unfortunately, yes. I have known about this for some time, but haven't had the time to do anything about it until today. The old site is now visible at https://dreditor.unicorn.fail, but key functionality (e.g. "one-click install") isn't likely to be fixed anytime soon given some hard coded aspects of the site.
No. I never said I was no longer maintaining Dreditor. You made that assumption and essentially attempted to hi-jacked this project from me and confuse people. What I did say was that browser-based extensions were no longer maintainable/sustainable and that I would be focusing efforts on integrating non-review specific features directly into d.o and complete rewriting the reviewer as a separate project that could be injected into d.o: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupalorg/issues/1673278. This entire org/project needs to be removed. |

After reading this, I think anyone would infer that you do not want to maintain Dreditor. Me and many people have benefitted from this project, and when it came for volunteering to maintain this extension me and Matt Grill stepped up. (although I have done a very bad job as a maintainer). And that is why we created this repository.
I never assumed it. It was your comment that made me and many others here https://www.drupal.org/project/drupalorg/issues/2779729 understand that you do not want to maintain this project.
This step was never meant as an hijack. I also tried to approach you many times for help via mail and Slack.
I was asking for help. I don't think a person who is a hijacker would ask for help from an ex-maintainer (now maintainer), if he is really intended to hijack his project. I was busy with work and another module ( The main project page of dreditor on Drupal https://www.drupal.org/project/dreditor till last year (https://www.drupal.org/node/525726/revisions/10745191/view) it said that the extension has been moved to this repository https://github.com/dreditor/dreditor. Yesterday I found that you have updated link. Looks like you are going to continue maintain this extension, I will be closing this repository. |

It's funny how you choose to only focus on the very last little bit of that comment: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupalorg/issues/2779729#comment-11521201 It's also funny how you choose to also ignore my response which was only 4 days after my previous comment (mainly due to client work) and just hours after you had prematurely forked this project: I asked you then to remove this org/project:
You also chose to ignore my comment about how you were attempting to hijack the project, that would only result in confusing people: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupalorg/issues/2779729#comment-11537565 You also chose to ignore my comment explaining what I actually meant by "decommissioning Dreditor". For some reason, you continue to simply not understand that I was and have always referred the EOL of Dreditor within the context of: its browser-based extension implementation, NOT THE PROJECT ITSELF: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupalorg/issues/2779729#comment-11537943 I even tried talking with you and Matt in IRC back then (sorry, no fancy screenshots to prove it) to discuss why forking the project was premature and how you misunderstood the new direction of the project and to clarify any misunderstandings. Unfortunately, that didn't go over very well from what I remember. Even after Ryan (mixologic) came up with a brilliant solution, one I have since acknowledged was the correct course of action for everything and everyone involved: You still continued to still keep this fork "alive", ignored everything I had said about this topic and pretend to be the "new maintainer".
You could have fooled me. As evidence from just the issue that you conveniently and selectively pick apart, you actively ignored me and everything I had said. Why would I waste my time with someone who suddenly, after nearly a year sends me a personal email out of the blue "asking for help" on a project they deemed was "non-mainatained"?
See this is what frustrates me about you. You make claims like this as if you have a leg to stand on and word it in such a way that implies that somehow you have ownership or authority over this project. The only reason this happened is because I originally had the I transferred this project to the new https://github.com/unicorn-fail org when I consolidated all my external projects into a single org (for monitory and permission reasons). The d.o project page referenced this old namespace and was never updated. Primarily because, before you re-created this org/project, GH automatically redirected it to the new https://github.com/unicorn-fail/dreditor namespace. Considering that the d.o project was and is an antiquated project, I didn't even realize the d.o project page was now suddenly pointing to the incorrect project until after sun made a change to point to the, again, incorrect domain for this forked project (https://www.drupal.org/node/525726/revisions). This caused the project page to show up in my "Updated" list and I quickly changed to just point to the correct project.
I have been and will continue to be, the primary maintainer the Dreditor project itself, yes. That has never and will never change. The browser-based extensions are what is no more. Simply put: the project evolved into something different. Similar to how D8 (with Symfony) is vastly different from D7.
Please do. It's confusing people. |
