I can't totally agree with this. pytest community is responsible anyway for the pytest plugins whose original authors/maintainers want to resign. And that was one of the main reason for me to push for the pytest-dev team - the guarantee that even if the plugin's author doesn't work to do anything for certain plugin anymore, the community will take over and will at least do bugfix releases/merge PRs, this is not so much of work. And why it's required to have explicit maintainer - it's not clear to me fully. PS: pytest-twisted is actually useful and used by the people, so loosing it is a bit sad
