Grant repo write permissions to @srenatus

[ericchiang]

@srenatus has been a active contributor to dex, and has helped review PRs for a while now. Grant him write access to the repo.

cc @rithujohn191 @rphillips

I can't do this because I don't have write access anymore (does someone mind adding me too?).

[srenatus]

From personal communication, we've agreed that I'll try helping with smaller PRs, to keep those at bay -- what would really be useful is to come up with a longer-term maintenance strategy for this fine project, I suppose.

(I'll also be on vacation for the next two weeks, so don't expect anything fast here, please 🍹)

[rphillips]

I don't have admin access... Maybe @rithujohn191 does.

Hi, We currently have some ongoing discussions internally about the future of Dex. Once we come to a conclusion I'll go ahead and grant you access @srenatus. Give me a week's time. Thank you for offering to help :) Regards Rithu Leena John

Hi @rithujohn191,

We currently have some ongoing discussions internally about the future of Dex.

Any updates on this? I'm exploring using Dex and am wondering if I should try something else.

Thanks
Sundar

Hi,

Yes I have proposed we move Dex out of the CoreOS repo and open up the maintainer list to others in the community. Waiting for approval.

[ccojocar]

This sounds great. I would also be interested to help since we are using dex quite a bit.

Any update here? Gitea may want to use this library. go-gitea/gitea#27 (comment)

@rithujohn191 I don't want to be a nag, but since some time has passed -- Any insights on the state of the internal discussion you can share so far? (Also: thanks for pursuing this! 😃)

[jimangel]

Also interested in the future of Dex & helping out if I can @srenatus @rithujohn191

[rendhalver]

I am also interested in the future of Dex and possibly being involved in helping maintain it.
Have we found an organisation to move the code into?

[tylercloke]

Also happy to get involved in maintaining! Dex has been a really useful piece of software for us :)

Hi All, Sorry for the delay. I was away at a conference all of this week, I have received the green signal to go ahead with the migration. I will work on it today. To start off with I'll put Stephan, Eric and mysellf on the maintainer list. We can re visit the decision of adding more people later on. Thanks for the patience. Excited to see Dex come back to life :) Regards, Rithu Leena John

@srenatus want to close this issue to test your newly acquired powers?

I've opened #1281 to explore adding additional maintainers.

Congratulations! I can't wait to use it.

@rithujohn191 Thank you! 🎉 🎊 😃
