Issue #21949 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze). I think some misunderstanding here is I interpret `matz` being listed as the maintainer of `timeout` as matz historically wrote and maintained `lib/timeout.rb`, and some special meaning. ---------------------------------------- Misc #21949: timeout gem maintainers https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21949#change-116651 * Author: Eregon (Benoit Daloze) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- The timeout gem has currently [no official active maintainers](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/doc/maintainers.md). I would like to propose myself and @nobu (see below) as maintainers of the [timeout](https://github.com/ruby/timeout) gem. I basically rewrote the implementation in https://github.com/ruby/timeout/pull/15 and acted as a maintainer since then by reviewing PRs and replying to issues. I also recently solved all open issues except https://github.com/ruby/timeout/issues/52 (where I have a draft PR to try to solve it and need more time to validate the fix). Among other [recent active contributors](https://github.com/ruby/timeout/graphs/contributors) I see @nobu, would you like to be maintainer of timeout as well? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
