@evan as much as they want, that’s the whole point of volunteering

@evan I mean sure, eventually. I have 8 people with admin on my repos and they will very often dedicate zero amount of time, but they’ve proven themselves trustworthy in the past and periodically pop back up.

Maintainers have zero time obligation too. That’s how it all works, zero guarantees zero obligations everything provided “as is” on both sides.

Works great

@evan I’ll note that for maintainers that are inactive for an extended period of time well freeze or revoke access for security reasons, but if they come back then we just give it back. It’s all just based on trust and mutual respect. Been doing it for 20 years now with success

@evan if I decide tomorrow to stop working on any OSS I’ve ever done as either a contributor or creator that’s…. Totally fine. I’ve never promised anything else.

@evan what do you mean done? Anyone can be done whenever they want. The project has no obligation the maintainers have no obligation the community has no obligation. I’m sorry I don’t understand what you’re asking.
