Mongrel users - Aug 2007 - The (Potentially) New Maintainers

Hello Everyone,

Been head down with personal stuff, but I wanted to shoot out this email saying
that I''ve collected the list of volunteers and decided that
I''d just hand the keys over to them and see how they do.

The list of people I have so far is:

Ezra Zygmuntowicz <ezmobius at gmail.com>
"Kirk Haines" <wyhaines at gmail.com>
"Wayne E. Seguin" <wayneeseguin at gmail.com>
Nate Jones - (mt) Media Temple" <nate at mediatemple.net>
filipe <filipe at icewall.org>

What I''m planning to do is add these people to the svn access list and
project maintenance parts of rubyforge and then let them at the code base to
produce the next release.

They''ll have full freedom to do what they think the community needs,
with only guidance from me if they ask for it.  I''ll be mostly hands
off.  This means it''ll be you folk''s job to tell them what you
want and what should happen.

If nobody has an objection to this then I''ll make it happen this week.

Hopefully Mongrel won''t become a gigantic ugly beast with six heads and
pretending it''s a Java Servlet container with tons of dubiously
licensed code attached to it.

But, I''m trusting these folks will figure it out and get things done.

Have fun!

Since we''re doing maintenance shuffles, should ask Rubyforge to move
the cgi_multipart_eof_fix gem into the mongrel project? I''m happy to
do so and it would probably save some people some confusion.

Evan,

I believe that would be for the best, anyone else?
