PEP 541 Request: humanize

[hugovk]

Project to be claimed

humanize: https://pypi.org/project/humanize

Your PyPI username

hugovk: https://pypi.org/user/hugovk

Reasons for the request

I'm the sole maintainer and already have "maintainer" access on PyPI, but not "administrator" access. I would like to ask for full admin access.

Background:

I took over maintenance of the project from the original author @jmoiron, 3.5 years ago:

• New maintainer? jmoiron/humanize#85

The author gave me maintainer access to the project on PyPI. The last release had been in 2014, since 2020 I've made 39 releases.

I would now like improve the security by setting up automated upload to PyPI via Trusted Publishers.

In the past I've also had need to "yank" a release (jmoiron/humanize#242 (comment)), but that's only possible as admin. I may also need to give access to more people in the future to ensure the project lives on.

Maintenance or replacement?

Maintenance

Source code repositories URLs

Originally: https://github.com/jmoiron/humanize
Now: https://github.com/python-humanize/humanize

Contact and additional research

I was in touch with the author via email in Feb-Apr 2020 when I originally took over maintenance. See also jmoiron/humanize#85.

I emailed in December 2021 and May 2023 to ask for PyPI admin access but didn't receive any reply.

We are working to contact the owner to determine if they're reachable.

Disclaimer: We are providing support to the PyPI Administrators to validate
this request and make a recommendation on the outcome and actions to be
taken. Final determination will be made by the PyPI Administrators when our
process is complete.

[Thespi-Brain]

The Owner @jmoiron was unreachable and did not get back to us regarding the status of their project despite multiple attempts. Therefore, we consider the project abandoned per PEP 541. I recommend that the PyPI Admins assign @hugovk as the new owner of humanize.
