Reach out to orgs to take responsibility for plugins

[jmcook1186]

Sub of #656

what

Reach out to organizations that could take ownership of specific plugins in our if-plugins and if-unofficial-plugins repositories to support later external migration of the plugins.

rationale

We want to gradually deprecate the if-unofficial-plugins repository by passing responsibility for specific plugins to the orgs best positioned to maintain them. The first step is to identify and then reach out to those orgs.

acceptance criteria

• Real Time Cloud have been approached to take ownership of cloud-metadata from if-plugins
  • Discussion on this has started already, here
• Remove teads-curve from if-unofficial-plugins and replace with generics pipeline #727
• Bloomberg (?) to take on grafana-exporter
• Microsoft have been approached to take ownership of azure-importer from if-unofficial-plugins
• Boavizta have been approached to take ownership of boavizta from if-unofficial-plugins
• Green web foundation have been approached to take ownership of CO2js from if-unofficial-plugins
• Watt-time have been approached to take ownership of watt-time from if-unofficial-plugins
• Thoughtworks have been approached to take ownership of ccf
• Move tdp-finder csvs to its own repo #728

Implementation details

@jawache to instigate majority of these conversations as he has open dialogues with many of the target organizations already.

@jawache when could you realistically start this? 🙏

[zanete]

@jawache do you feel up for this one this week or should we move to next? There is a strong desire to launch the plugin registry with most of the plugins cleaned up and ownership clarified 🙏

[jawache]

@jmcook1186 and @zanete so I think realistically this will have to be me perhaps making introductions but then @jmcook1186 following up.

I'd suggest we set up a 1hr working call next week where we just go through these, craft some emails together and send out, @jmcook1186 wanna try and find some time next Thursday?

[jmcook1186]

yes - fantastic. I'll suggest a time.

[zanete]

great, thanks both! I will leave it to you to organise (and moving this to next week so it doesn't mess with with the board)

[zanete]

@jawache how's this going? who have you contacted and what's new?

[jawache]
