Hi Torsten

We were just discussing this today on IRC strangely enough and I was
planning to reach out to you about this.

I take your point Gavin about there being issues with it but this helm
chart has a lot of adoption and it’s best to improve what we have (and I’d
be happy to help)

The easiest way is for you to create a hosting request in Jenkins Jira, we
can then fork it and you can delete your origin repo

Thanks
Tim
