0.13.7 with infinispan fix

[Ben M.]

Hi trask,

is it possible to create a 0.13.7 release containing the infinispan fix?

Thanks!

Trask appears to be busy with other projects right now.  You will have to build your own copy until he comes back.

Yes, I was not trying to enforce something. Maybe just as a reminder or something.

I sincerely hope this amazing piece of software could some day be maintained by a group or foundation.

Ben,

I agree.  I wonder what can be done to both allow Trask to freely work on other stuff as well as ensure this great tool continues to stay afloat.

Hi David,

I mailed Trask directly, and he would like to see more interaction from users (aka other devs).

That is, reviewing PRs would extremely help, as well as picking bugs and creating PRs for them.

I reviewed some bugs and also wrote a mail to some former contributors, who also seem willing to 

further contribute.

About the foundation thing… It would have been possible in mid-2020, but now without posts it is much harder.

For example, the ASF only accepts projects with a community as far as I know.

So, the best we can do: advertise / spread word about glowroot and help Trask maintain this software.

Maybe one of us could become co-lead so he is not the only  one who can publish releases.

That would be super helpful!
