Hi All, Love to see a lot of people stepping up to help with archiso. Perhaps we should do feature hunts more often, even for projects that have maintainers. But, we still don't have anyone wanting to become the actual maintainer of archiso to help implement these changes. I don't really see archiso being a handful as it is now. But, that might change with these features being introduced. Whomever takes it, should be able to cope with that. Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini pgpHcsTUeSkWf.pgp Description: PGP signature

Daniel Bermond has expressed interest in adopting the necessary shim-efi package [2] to the repositories since he is its current AUR maintainer, I am also happy to co-maintain that package.

[arch-dev-public] Looking for an Arch ISO maintainer
Hi all, Gerardo has stepped down as Arch ISO maintainer, which makes archiso unmaintained. I've asked Pierres if he was interested in maintaining the project and he is willing to do bug fixes when required but no major maintenance. Which means that we are looking for a new maintainer :-) To be completely honest, I am not sure what maintenance archiso requires but there are a few things I would love to see: - Proper CI / automated testing of the archiso - Reproducible archiso (patches on the mailing list) [1] - Support secure boot [2] - Accessibility improvements (patches available on the mailing list) [3] Please reply if you are interested in becoming an archiso maintainer, so far Alad has shown interested.
