Re: [recommenders-dev] Annual committer list clean up

Hi Doug,
Hi Johannes,


thanks for your replies. My primary concern is the failed election because of almost no votes. Christmas may have contributed to this to some extent. However, the general inactivity in terms of commits and other activity is a great worry to me. It would be great to see some progress , e.g., on Snipmatch and a little more activity on Gerrit, Bugzilla, or the mailing list from project committers. If there anything you'd like to become responsible for, please let me know. There is a great many of things to work on: snipmatch, code search, stacktrace search, build system, extdoc, and after the recommenders.incubator election is restarted also on precise - the argument completion engine led by Cheng Zhang…

I'll wait a couple more days to get an reply from other committers on their future plans.

Best,
Marcel

I'd like to stay on the list. I just joined Google, so I'm a little
swamped at the moment, but I do plan to continue developing SnipMatch
in 2013.

I must have missed the vote while on holiday.

Hi Sebastian,
Hi Recommenders-dev,

thanks for your response and thanks for the time you spent on the project,
Sebastian. I'm sad to hear that you won't find the time to continue working
on this project. Given your past records, I'd like propose to change your
state to "Committer Emeritus" - if you like and no one else has objections.


Given the results of the last poll, it seems that a reactivation of the old
committers - or a cleanup - is needed to continue the project. When
committer elections fail due to not participating (not voting at all - not
giving "0") this is not good. It may be because of Christmas but I think
it's not the cause why the election failed. I'd like to detail a little bit
about the status of every current committer. A copy of this  mail goes to
all committer's email address directly to make sure they receive it.



Andreas Kaluza was one of the initial committers for the project and student
working with Johannes, Stefan and me on the Code Recommenders project in
2010. Unfortunately he never found the time to commit code to the project
after his initial version of call chain completion. Andreas, can you briefly
respond to this email?

Stefan Henss is as master student at Darmstadt University of Technology and
currently heading for another project/master thesis. It seems he's not
listening to the list anymore. Stefan, are you interested to keep the
committer status?

Johannes Lerch worked a lot on the Code Recommenders project in 2011 but his
research area shifted last year towards security mining. Johannes, do you
want to keep committer status - and help to project to evolve (at least by
responding to committer votes in recommenders/recommenders.incubator and and
architectural questions)?

Chen Cheng was a GSOC student on who worked on Snipmatch and who quickly
after the final evaluation disappeared. I assume that his committer rights
can be revoked safely even after this short period. Chen, let me know when
I'm wrong by responding to this email.

Doug Wightman. Doug, you and your students contributed Snipmatch some time
ago (is it a year ago already?). Committer status also requires some level
of participation such as participating in committer elections and helping
the project to grow. Can you explain what your plans look like with
Snipmatch and your committer status?


The last poll results show that we cannot continue with such a long list of
passive committers. Please respond to this email and let us know how to
continue.


Thanks,
Marcel

Hey Marcel,

I was not very active in the last year, teaching at the university
took its toll. :(

Read-only access to the repository is all I need to continue my
current work, feel free to revoke my committer rights.

Thank you for the opportunity to get insights in such an innovative project.

best regards
Sebastian

It's time for the annual committer list cleanup. If you are a committer of
Recommenders being listed as inactive in [1], please let me know (by
responding to this note) that you'd like to remain a committer on Code
Recommenders or Code Recommenders Incubator.

Thanks,
Marcel
