Dear all,

I used to be the maintainer of cypari2, pari-jupyter and pplpy. I will
not work anymore on any of them from now on. The three projects are
under the sagemath organization on github so that any administrator
can take over. Concerning the access to PyPI to push releases I can
promote anybody who wants access (do we have a policy for this?).

Best

Hi Vincent,

To help whoever takes over, do you have any comments about *why* you
will not work on any of these projects?  Is it just lack of time and you need
to focus on something else, or is there something fundamentally annoying
about the direction of these projects?  Thanks for any insight to help guide
whoever takes over.

Hi William,

Mostly time. Some choices had to be made on where to concentrate my
energy. I do not find it particularly rewarding to work on these
projects. The lack of support, good atmosphere and appreciation did
not help me trying to find more time working on them.

Best
Vincent

Thanks, Vincent, for all your work on these projects in the past, and for letting us know about your decision.
As https://github.com/sagemath/cypari2/issues/131 indicates (and previously raised in https://groups.google.com/g/sage-devel/c/JBFbtUNhqNU/m/2PvzZbS8AQAJ), we will need to document development workflow, governance, release management process for these projects (and others in the sagemath org).

You can add me on PyPI for these projects, then I'll use the same deployment key that the other sagemath projects use for pushing releases to PyPI.
https://github.com/sagemath/cypari2/pull/141 is already prepared for this, and I can add the same for the other projects.

Matthias

Thanks Matthias. You are now an owner on PyPI.
