Move the module to voxpupuli

[vStone]

Since you mentioned being swarmed with work, maybe we can move this module to voxpupuli so more eyes can keep it up to date (looking at puppet4 and strict_variables)

@razorsedge any thoughts?

We would be more than willing to take it in and maintain it.

[elconas]

@razorsedge 👍 please do it :)

[blackknight36]

I guess I'll throw my +1 in here. I'd love to see an active community maintaining a single module instead of 80 different forks.

[cedef]

Any news on this one ? If I understand correctly, voxpupuli is waiting on @razorsedge to follow the migration guide.

[oranenj]

Can I somehow help make this happen? This module could use a bit of Puppet 4 updating, even though it does work well even as is.

[blackknight36]

Not sure what to do at this point. I have a custom fork of this module which does provide puppet 4 support and I'd love to see the changes merged into this module.

[ardichoke]

Could we please make this happen? Alternatively, @blackknight36, could you take your fork and migrate it to the voxpupuli community?

[blackknight36]

@ardichoke I'll see what I can do. I was waiting to see if any of my PRs would be merged in. @razorsedge seems to have returned from the dead for a bit but it's been a few weeks without any response now.

Any updates?

[blackknight36]

I can talk to Vox Pupuli about moving this module over. They normally like to work with the original module author but it seems like @razorsedge is unavailable for the most part.

Any news about moving this module over ?

[blackknight36]

@hdep I haven't had time to go through the process of moving to Voxpupuli but I do have my own fork which is still being maintained. I've been considering publishing my fork on the puppet forge as well.

[blackknight36]

I've just published an updated version of this module on the forge. See https://forge.puppet.com/blackknight36/snmp for details.

[razorsedge]

Every time that I think I have the time and energy to work on this module, I end up not doing so.

I have begun the process of migrating to voxpupuli. I will keep this issue informed as to its progress.

[blackknight36]

@razorsedge Thanks for your help and all of your work on this module. I look forward to contributing more.

[johanfleury]

This is good news.

Thank you for all the work you’ve done on this module!

[razorsedge]

If you are reading this, the module ownership has changed. I think a few more steps in the process have to be taken by Vox Pupuli staff.

[ubellavance]

Thanks for your work @razorsedge

[vStone]

I'm gonna close #138 in favor of keeping this one open to track progress on the migration.

The module puppet-snmp 4.0.0 is now released on the forge.
