Hi all, To close the loop here, both @defolos and @x3mboy reaffirmed ownership of i3 packaging and Spin curation for the F45 Release Cycle[1]. The migration from Pagure.io to Forgejo is now beginning[2]. So, for the foreseeable future, the i3 Spin will continue to produce ISOs at or around Fedora Release Days each cycle. Thanks @defolos and @x3mboy for taking up the responsibilities! 🙏🏻🎉
@Michael: A conversation about the longevity of the X11 stack as a whole is off-topic for this thread. It would be a better discussion to have on-list in a different thread. Based on what both Dan and Eduard said, the implicit understanding is that as long as Fedora ships X11 as an available package, the work will continue for i3 packaging and curating the i3 Spin. Eduard already mentioned in the Fedora Discussion topic that he has some ideas for improvements to work on in the Spin. If Fedora no longer packages X11, I am sure everyone involved will revisit the situation then.
