Odhcp6c not maintained by anyone?

For Developers
1

Hello, seems odhcp6c(https://github.com/openwrt/odhcp6c), which is hosted and maintained in openwrt official git, is not being maintained by anyone now. There are some MRs and issues have been opened for over one year and no maintainer have replied. Can we change this situation?

Is there anyone could help with this?

Has maintainers,

4

That guy has no response about any issues and MRs since about 1 year ago…. I don’t think he’s still maintaining it.

5

Check commit history, just tag them to draw attention?

6

Commit history is also stopped since then, also tried @ the maintainer at GitHub long time ago and had no response at all.

Newest reply at forum is Jan 2021…..

I read - not too shocking. Developers don't tend to be very chatty here (forums).

  • You can also poke around IRC
  • Did you email?
11

Tagging at GitHub should send email to that guy, so I don’t think email is helpful. But I haven’t check irc yet.

Sadly seems no one have seen the maintainer these days(after asking at irc).

13

Hello? Anyone could help?

14

Make a PR if you need a change, then rise attention to it.

15

If it works I don't have to create a topic here to raise attention....

16

You can open issue in openwrt/openwrt tagging latest committers to draw attention. Devs usually dont come around here.

17

Well I opened one here https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/16698

Hope we would get reply soon.

18

You are not reporting a bug that your PR would fix. Dont expect answer, less so soon.
