Let's put aside the identity of the person for the moment. Earlier you

Perhaps you could elaborate more on your thoughts about the *role* of
the maintainer after the handover: what you see that person doing,
what kinds of decisions you think they will face, and so on. Also,
elaborate on your criteria for a maintainer: what went into your
selection process?
Remember, we're most interested in seeing your articulate what the
DBIC community can expect for the future. The specific person is
merely a mechanism for that decision.
I am taking distance from the entire thing for a couple days, to figure
out a reasonable reply to the above, and to several followups in this
thread ( the difficulty is mainly addressing the inappropriateness of
the question itself, rather than its substance ).
As for raising this in other forums, please show me where to join and
start the thread. I'm happy to join and facilitate in whatever public
forum you think best to gauge community sentiment about the specifics
of your plans.
The only wide-reaching forum that I myself am aware of is the mailing
list, mentioned at the expected spot in the metadata:
https://metacpan.org/source/RIBASUSHI/DBIx-Class-0.082840/META.yml#L66
More on the rest later
