Takeover Vundle

[gmarik]

Hey guys,

Please comment below if you're interested in taking over Vundle.

I've not been involved and it's hurting the project.
If you're interested in taking the lead - let me know and we'll discuss transition.

Thanks!

PS: please share/RT

Progress:

• Create an organization: VundleVim
• announce at /r/vim
• Transfer The Repo to The VundleVim
• Invite everyone
• Describe team process:

Potential Volunteers

• @btreeinfinity
• @KamranMackey
• @silfverstrom
• @ryanoasis

Hi, I think you should create the github organization for Vundle like ctrlp.

https://github.com/ctrlpvim

[Shougo]

You or other people should post the anounce in vim_dev or vim_use or reddit/vim, ...
Vundle is major plugin manager, I think the supporters are coming.

[gmarik]

Thanks @Shougo, will do that!

[Shougo]

:-)

I have announced it in my Twitter account.

I'd be willing to take over, and amp it up, but only with community support and input!

[Shougo]

Yes, you don't have to fix VimL code :-)

[gmarik]

@btreeinfinity awesome!
Would be nice to have several ppl onboard as it's not sustainable for one person(unless hardcore OSS-er) IMO.

can you list the main things a new maintainer/person/thing/ has to do? Maybe there's people that would be interested but are too scared to take over such a project.

edit: also tweeting about it :)

[gmarik]

@dvidsilva everyone can find something for oneself: take a look at issues and it could be from helping ppl with advice, testing, fixing a bug to implementing a feature…

@gmarik I'd be willing to take over Vundle with @btreeinfinity as well. I don't mind! 😃

[gmarik]

@KamranMackey I don't mind, as long as it makes users happy ;)

[evieluvsrainbows]

@gmarik Alright. 😃

Vundle now returns an error when it's handling itself - are we on this branch still?

Error:

You are not currently on a branch. Please specify which branch you want to merge with See git-pull(1) for details.

and i'd be willing to pitch in too - but i'm a noob and would like some mentoring when it comes to the code. do we have an IRC?
