Hi,<br>
<br>
I wonder if it is a go idea to have the "Maintainer wanted" splashscreen in<br>
Plan and Karbon also enabled in the 2.7 releases. People who still see some<br>
use in either programs surely will get annoyed quickly, and there is no option<br>
to turn it off.<br>
<br>
So I would argue to enable that splashscreen always in master, but only in<br>
debug builds of release branches. That way it will reach those people who are<br>
kind of okay to mess around with code and building (and could also patch that<br>
screen away) but not annoy Joe User.<br>
<br>
For releases we should (have) put that message rather (additionally) in the<br>
About dialog, I think now. We still can, either asking the translators for<br>
exception or keeping it in english (like the splashscreen, which is also<br>
untranslated).<br>
<br>
What do you think?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>I think you're absolutely right. I don't think such a message has a place in releases, and especially not in splashscreens. It's not the right venue to solicit new maintainers. Releases are releases after all, and they have end users as their sole target :)</div>
