To the whole OProfile community: After 6 years of serving in the role of lead maintainer for the OProfile project, it's time for me to pass the baton to someone else. I'll be retiring in late December, so I would like to have this transition completed by early December. Currently, the project is in pretty stable condition, with just a few open bugs and feature requests. The primary task of the lead maintainer is to ensure submitted patches are well-reviewed and tested before being committed. Sometimes those reviews are handed off to other community members who have the necessary expertise (in particular, architecture-specific patches are usually reviewed by one of the architecture sub-maintainers on cc). For arch-independent patches, reviews from any community members are helpful, but in reality, the lead maintainer ha s the final say and so must also review such patches. Another part of the job is to help answer questions that are posted to the mailing list. Traffic on the list is pretty low these days, ! so not a l ot of time is required for this. I encourage all who are interested in this opportunity to contact me, and we can discuss it. Feel free to do so in a private response if you prefer.
