🌻 Open source/Upstream contributions

edit
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Release_Engineering_Team/Upstream
  • (antoine) Released python-jenkins 1.8.0 , previous release was 3 years ago ( https://groups.google.com/g/jenkins-job-builder/c/-Tm0cQPCTcs )
    • The original library was on Launchpad using Bazaar. 9 years ago I reached out to the original developer and migrated it to git / OpenStack Gerrit (they were relying on the lib at the time). It has lived its life of its own and suddenly regained some interest and due to lack of interested maintainers I started contributing again.
