We've talked through this before. Benjamin sussed out the main issue, IIRC. tl,dr: - The AUTHORS lists everyone who ever made a commit ( https://github.com/gocql/gocql/blob/master/AUTHORS) - The license is BSD-3 and explicitly says the copyright is owned by the authors (https://github.com/gocql/gocql/blob/master/LICENSE#L1) - We had a previous discussion about 6 years ago: https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@cassandra.apache.org/msg13008.html
We can open an issue with LEGAL to see what they say at least? -N On Tue, Feb 6, 2024 at 10:25 AM Mick Semb Wever <m...@apache.org> wrote: > > The current sole maintainer of the gocql driver has stated the project is > essentially in attic mode and is asking for new maintainers. > > https://groups.google.com/g/gocql/c/v0FruczBb2w > > No one has suggested the repo be donated to the ASF yet, but before anyone > should raise any such suggestion we should check if we have folk in the > project that would be willing to help out with such a donation. >
