RE: [upnp-sdk-dev] Project UPnP is DEAD

Why should you be surprised if the maintainers are still active? How did you
get subscribed to the SDK dev mailing list if there are no maintainers?

The project was inactive not for lack of interest by the maintainers, but
lack of interest from the community. For years, no one was really willing to
contribute anything nor was anyone interested in taking over the project.
Those of us who started the project have been waiting to see if any interest
kindled in the project. Only in the last couple of months has some interest
sparked. 

As for developer interest, I've been monitoring the mailing lists from day
one. Other than Remi and John of late, there hasn't been much developer
interest. I haven't seen much email with patches or queries about getting
involved. Had I seen that, I would have responded. 

If you wish to take over as the (or a) maintainer of the project, let me
know and I can add you. I would like to see this project continue to
flourish. It is just unfortunate that I do not have the time to contribute
to this project.

Subject: [upnp-sdk-dev] Project UPnP is DEAD

Not very funny what I can see...

- the homepage at upnp.sf.net is totally outdated, not only the latest
release isn't mentioned there

- the maintainers seem to be not interested in the project, the bugtracker
is full of open bugs

- patches and modifications that are sent in by developers are ignored,
nothing new is integrated

So I'd not be astonished if there are also no maintainers active within the
mailing lists. For me that means the project is dead, apparently because of
the lack of interest of the maintainers while developers are willing and
able to contribute to the project.

Also if I won't expect to get an answer: what plans are there with the
future of the libupnp?

Mike
