In fact, I’ve even Cc:ed them for maximum ease!

By the way, if you have difficulty with logging in to PAUSE, an email to 
modules@perl.org<mailto:modules@perl.org> asking them to effect this also 
works, albeit there’s a delay till a human gets to it.

Best regards,

Congratulations!!

You need to log into PAUSE on https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery and for 
the distribution OpenGL, add ETJ (me) and ZMUGHAL (Zaki) as co-maints – no 
emails involved. If you’re feeling like passing on the torch, then pass 
first-come to either of us, though it’s obviously a good idea to leave yourself 
as co-maint.

Best regards,
Ed

Apologies - my fiancee and I got married, just got back into town.

I’ve not touched the OpenGL module in over a decade; happy to add you.

I don’t believe metacpan existed back when I was working on it, and haven’t 
been able to login.

As soon as I get this resolved, I’ll add you.

What email addresses am I adding?

Thanks - Bob

Hi Bob,

We’d quite like to complete an update to the CPAN version of OpenGL, as we’re 
just finishing a modernisation of the repo with GitHub Actions-based CI. I 
appreciate you may still be busy at work, but I note that you weren’t the 
original author but someone to whom the library was handed, and I assume you 
aren’t intending for it to just slowly bit-rot forever?

Best regards,
Ed

Hi Bob,

I’m taking a look at OpenGL again, and fixing a couple of bugs. I can’t release 
them yet because only you and BBENNETT have permission on it: 
https://metacpan.org/dist/OpenGL/permissions

Could I ask you again to add me (ETJ) and Zaki (ZMUGHAL) as co-maints?

Also, you alluded in an email in May last year, to changes you’ve made on your 
own fork. Could you point me at those so I can incorporate them?

Best regards,
Ed

Thanks for the heads-up!  As usual, I’m swamped - but happy to help out if I 
can.

I know that over the years, I’ve made minor updates on my own fork.

Hi Chris and all,

I've invited all to the GitHub organisation <https://github.com/Perl-GPU> (in

other hardware acceleration APIs in the future). It would be helpful to 
transfer any OpenGL-related repos

Hi Zaki and all-

I am not doing perl/PDL/OpenGL but you are more than welcome to migrate
the github repositories to new management.  If you need any permissions to
do the job, please let me know.

V/r,
Chris

Hi all,

Just following up on this.

An update: all the PDLPorters repos have cross-platform continuous integration 
now.

I would like that level of support for Perl OpenGL and I believe working on 
GitHub will help achieve that.

Best regards,

Hi chm, Mithaldu, Ed,

I have been working through improving the automated CI for PDLPorters
<https://github.com/PDLPorters/devops/pull/8> and noticed that I had an
open PR for doing something similar with the OpenGL.pm code here
<https://github.com/zmughal/pogl/pull/1> from 2016 (albeit with Travis
CI instead of GitHub Actions).

I believe at some point we were discussing in IRC about moving OpenGL
development to GitHub either as a mirror or just starting development on
GitHub as done with the PDL repositories.

I would like to offer any help if that can be done and to start working
through the issues here <https://sourceforge.net/p/pogl/bugs/> and
creating an Alien::OpenGL to help consolidate some of the build
configuration.

Perhaps a first step is to create a Perl OpenGL organisation on GitHub?
I noticed that <https://metacpan.org/author/BFREE> has owner permissions
here <https://metacpan.org/dist/OpenGL/permissions> and was wondering if
you are in contact with them. Would they be interested in bringing in
OpenGL::Image / OpenGL::Shader?

Cheers,
- Zaki
