[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] geanypy: Drop use of the most obvious deprecated Geany API (#363)

[Jiří Techet]

> You didn't even ping before doing it.

Sorry. My impression was the maintainers have been pinged enough when the pull request was made and didn't respond for 3 months which I interpreted as either "looks OK" or "don't care about Geany any more".

> ​I had asked that the deprecation message be put into the ​docstring, which
had not occurred.

Sorry, I didn't interpret your message as not approving the patch.

Since I know nothing about the plugin I didn't explore where such a docstring belongs. And adding it is quite trivial for someone who does - which I assumed was you. Also my impression was that merging this doesn't break anything and that the docstring patch could be added later quite independently.

> As I said in my maintainer resignation, Geany-plugins has become untenable
for maintainers.

Again sorry if merging this and other similar patches looked unfriendly - I definitely didn't want to do something against plugin maintainer's will and didn't expect this reaction. Since many plugins are unmaintained and even when they are officially maintained the maintainers don't respond, I think it's necessary to do some minor cleanups from time to time without having to wait (possibly infinitely) for the maintainer's approval.
