No, actually that isn't what I said. I never said anything about Pagure *prospering*. I said it exists for contributions today and it will continue to exist going forward as long as people want it to. Further replies in the thread elaborate more. > Or maybe reassigning Java maintainers .... oh, sorry, that already > happened ... Sure. To acknowledge your point, losing a large contributor to any project is a blow. That's 100% true. That doesn't mean it kills the project immediately, and those that want to see it continue need to put in the work to make that happen. In some cases, it can actually have net positive effects by making the community that is interested now empowered as well. It really all depends on what those contributors are willing to do though. josh _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
