Hi,
we are looking for a new maintainer for the Windows builds of Geany.
You want to:
- continue using Geany (or start doing so)
- maintain the Windows builds of Geany
- support the Geany developers on creating releases
- have fun with Geany's codebase, MSYS2 and Microsoft Windows and all
the problems these create
Your benefits:
- fame and glory
- happy users of Geany on Windows
More seriously, while Geany is developed mostly on Linux and probably
most of the user base is using Linux as well, there are also some
Windows users.
In the past, the Windows builds were maintained by me (eht16) but I
cannot continue because I used a Windows 7 VM but Windows 7 is no longer
supported by MSYS2 which the builds are based on.
I will not upgrade to or use any newer version of the operating system
for various reasons, so we are looking for someone who wants to take over.
See also https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/4189 where follow up
discussions should happen.
Happy new year,
Enrico
