Hi, We have a couple of Openstack projects that uses WSME for their REST APIs[1], but WSME project looks abandoned. The review stats are not good, for the last 40 days the project didn't have a single review from a core reviewer[2], the bugs are not being triaged nor fixed [3], I have been trying to get some core people to look at a review for the last ~2 weeks by asking for reviews in the #wsme channel without success. Plus, if you look at the merged patches queue you will see that some people approve their own patches*.
This all concerns me, I do not want Ironic to rely on unmaintained technology for our Rest API and I suspect that other projects using WSME doesn't want that either. So how can we fix this problem? * Should projects relying on WSME start thinking about migrating their APIs to another technology? * Can we somehow get the core team to start paying more attention to the project? Or can we elect some people willing to do some review to the core team ? If so, there's anyone out there that wants help with it? * Forking the project an option?
