Is this repo dead?

[attenzione]

No update for year.
And PostgreSQL 13 have been released.

[otakup0pe]

Yeah just about. I've tried to get people to volunteer to help out but there has yet to be enough momentum. Unless some people come out of the woodwork to help I'll likely be archiving several ANXS roles and focus on modernizing others.

Hey @otakup0pe , I use this role in production for a year now and would hate to see it archived. Would love to give a hand maintaining :)

[otakup0pe]

that is super rad let's figure out how to chat first and then i can set you up as a maintainer

[RCM7]

Feel free to drop me a message on Twitter. Handle in my Github profile ;)

I have offered to help maintaining this role through my company (we have 4 good Ansible admins) earlier, but we have gotten the reply "create pull requests".

Our offer is still on. I would happily spend some time and money on at least keeping this repo alive.

[otakup0pe]

Noted! I will be reaching out to y'all this week - maglub how should I get ahold of you?

We (https://github.com/noris-network/) also use this in production - and worked on repmgr extension (Demonware#3). Would like to see merges upstream here an willing to help out merging & testing stuff.

@egmont1227 awesome, are you on gitter yet?

[RayOei]

Slightly related: it would be great if the last v1.12 would be available in the ansible galaxy...

[egmont1227]

@egmont1227 awesome, are you on gitter yet?

Nope. I rather prefer github with async communication ;)

@otakup0pe Where can we start to help? We can merge the repmgr extension, we can upgrade this role to work on centos8 (although its dead in a year ;)) ...

[otakup0pe]

I am totally 🆗 with github / async comms. Gitter is like that too but now that I think of it I wonder if we could actually use github discussions in it's place.... Something to think about.

I have a soft preference for cleanup around the os support. I know there are a bunch of pr/issues open covering more than just centos8.

I am preparing j2 templates for postgres13, I can push them back to community, if there is none any yet

[gclough]

Hi team... I've been blocked for a long time, but I'm back on this for 4 hours a week to help get it moving wherever I can. I'll review some outstanding MR's, and push v13 support if it's not already there.

I'll be able to do bit of Postgres 13 testing later (simple install), because I have Ubuntu 16 -> 20 upgrades planned, and will likely group that, if this can help.
