[brylie]

Hei all. Can we please review this proposal? It has heart support but no reviewers.

[MrCordeiro]

@brylie, what should be the next steps here? Is there any Jazzband member we should contact?

[jezdez]

I'm sorry this is stuck on the proposal backlog, I think the things that jump out that needs to be checked before a transfer can happen:

• the docs are sparse and would need to be ported to a Sphinx project and hosted on Read The Docs. This can be done after the transfer but I need acknowledgement that this would happen
• the package metadata doesn't contain data which license this is released under, while the LICENSE file is GPL3
• the CI setup would need to be ported to GitHub Actions, but virtually all other Jazzband projects can be used as inspiration

[MrCordeiro]

Thanks, @jezdez!

@brylie, I see you have a PR going. Need any help? I could try adding to it.

[brylie]

Thanks, @MrCordeiro. Feel free to contribute to the PR in any way that would help the proposal move forward :-)

@jezdez, I was looking at the other projects and got a question. Should I just create a Test workflow for now and then the Release workflow when the project is moved, or do I create both now? Thanks!

You can create both of them and just change the names in the release workflow, it'll be identical for this project and just needs the release key to enable it, that I'd do.

[MrCordeiro]

Done, @jezdez!
The only thing missing is to port the docs to a Sphinx project, be we can do this after the transfer, right?

[jezdez]

@MrCordeiro Yep, totally fine. Feel free to transfer the repo with the usual repo transfer functionality, a ticket to track the rest of the TODOs will be opened automatically.

[MrCordeiro]

@brylie, have you had any news of the transfer?

[brylie]

@MrCordeiro, nope. I think @bee-keeper will need to initiate the transfer from their account.

[valberg]

I guess that only @bee-keeper can do the transfer? Is forking the project a viable alternative if we do not hear from them?

[bee-keeper]

Hi, sorry i've been slow on this. I just made the transfer now so should be all good?

[valberg]

@bee-keeper Awsome! No need to be sorry - we all have stuff to do that gets in the way of other stuff :)

I can see django-invitations on the jazzband website now: https://jazzband.co/projects/django-invitations 👏

[MrCordeiro]

@bee-keeper You'll see that there is a checklist of things required to complete the transfer here, like changing the user for coveralls and adding the Jazzband bot as a project maintainer on Pypi, that only you'll be able to do.

[chrysle]

@jezdez Since the transfer has been completed, this can be closed.
