Hi all,
I am sorry for the delay to reply Brendan's email as I was away for business
for one week and have not checked my private email account ever since.
Considering the fact that most maintainers are too busy to volunteer, I am
glad to try this role to see if I can fit. I did make some contribution code
to vgui some time ago and Peter Vanroose kindly submitted my code to the
repository. See this post
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=E025D428944D4B18AFF83CE820B14D7E%40LianqingVAIO&forum_name=vxl-maintainers.
I also have some experience with CVS/SVN. Nonetheless before the trial, I do
need some help or documentation on how to do the job as a release
maintainer. Could you please point me to some reference?
Best regards
Lianqing Yu

Dear All,
I had delayed following up on this because of Matt's proposal to move
to git (and subsequently take over the releases). Since that is now
not happening, I think it is time to raise it again. Lianqing Yu has
volunteered to take over as the release maintainer (you may have
noticed that I haven't been doing any releasing lately). I have
received no objections or encouragement for the change. Lianqing is
somewhat reluctant because of a lack of seniority which is a valid
concern (I don't think s/he is a current maintainer, and as far as I
can tell, s/he hasn't made any submissions to the vxl project yet).
Given the lack of enthusiasm for a more senior maintainer to take on
the job, I propose that it be given to Lianqing, at least on a trial
basis. Otherwise, I can see the official releases being stuck at 1.14
(the main website still says 1.13, but the actual release is 1.14.
Could someone update the main website please? It seems that my efforts
to do so have no effect.). If there are no objections or other offers
for the release maintainer within a week, I will follow up and make it
happen.

Hi Brendan,
I wonder why there has been no response from maintainers so far. Maybe
it's better to wait some time for their response. If no one objects
your recommendation, I'd like to take the role and it's a great
honour.
Lianqing Yu

Hi Lianqing Yu,
Given the lack of response from the other maintainers, I am thinking
that if you decide not to take on the release role, then it is very
likely that the job won't get done at all. Prestige doesn't usually
factor in jobs like this - willingness to do it is the most important
thing.
