It's about a dying project. I am collaborating with it since ~2 years |
| 6 |
and it isn't getting any better (afais I'm pretty much the only regular |
| 7 |
collaborator who is not on the team... many others stopped caring). |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
So, this is about: |
| 10 |
The fact that not a single one from the team has responded here. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The fact that the lead has not contributed regularly to the project in |
| 13 |
the last year. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
The fact that the lead does not respond to people asking to join the team. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The fact that the lead didn't care about the SDL2 bump which is |
| 18 |
basically the most important games related library. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
The fact that most mails to games@ don't get any attention. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
The fact that the IRC channel is almost empty. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
The fact that there is no official overlay to contribute alpha/beta or |
| 25 |
other WIP ebuilds. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
The fact that there is no active work done on the eclasses and related |
| 28 |
review requests often simply get ignored. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
The fact that no one is working on improving the projects public |
| 31 |
appearance (like the wiki). |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
So I am wondering what you are wondering about. Check the commit stats |
| 35 |
in games-*/ categories. You will not see many people doing any serious |
| 36 |
work there, except for the ones who were already mentioned in this thread. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
The problems are so obvious, you really have to shut your eyes to not |
| 39 |
see them. |
