[infra][ironic][tact-sig] Intent to grant control of x/virtualpdu to OpenStack community
The OpenStack Ironic project relies on VirtualPDU, which is no longer actively developed. Ironic contributors reached out to the VirtualPDU maintainers with an offer to officially assume maintenance responsibilities in order to avoid forking it, and received a response from one (Mathieu Mitchell) who indicated support for that plan. Unfortunately, communication died off shortly thereafter, and the Ironic team has been unable to raise any of the current maintainers to actually add their access to the x/virtualpdu project in OpenDev's Gerrit. We don't have a documented process since this is the first time it's really come up, but I'm officially announcing that I intend to use my administrative permissions as an OpenDev sysadmin to add membership of an OpenStack Ironic team representative to the following Gerrit groups if no objections are raised before Wednesday, March 8: * virtualpdu-core * virtualpdu-release This will effectively grant full control of the x/virtualpdu repository to OpenStack Ironic contributors. Please follow up to the service-discuss@lists.opendev.org or openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org mailing list with any concerns as soon as possible, or you can feel free to reach out to me directly by email or in IRC (fungi in the #opendev channel on the OFTC network). -- Jeremy Stanley

It seems the additional round of outreach worked, so no longer requires my direct intervention: https://lists.opendev.org/archives/list/service-discuss@lists.opendev.org/th... -- Jeremy Stanley
Thanks for this anyway Jeremy! Luckily one of the old maintainers added me to the virtualpdu-core and virtualpdu-release groups, so now we can move forward with the repository update and move easily. Ciao! Riccardo On Thu, Mar 2, 2023 at 12:05 AM Jeremy Stanley <fungi@yuggoth.org> wrote:

Thanks for the work, VirtualPDU-maintainers-emeritus, Jeremy, and Riccardo. The change just merged into governance for Ironic to officially take over this repo ( https://opendev.org/openstack/governance/commit/db8597ad9245ce2c115b4d5140a6... ). Over the next handful of weeks we'll work with our OpenDev sysadmin partners to get the repo moved into the openstack/ namespace. - Jay Faulkner Ironic PTL TC Vice-Chair On Thu, Mar 2, 2023 at 3:38 AM Riccardo Pittau <elfosardo@gmail.com> wrote:
