Hey All,

For some reason I cannot reset my password to get into dub (https://code.dlang.org/), after trying I never receive the email to reset my password.

I was unsure at first if I had signed up at all, but trying to make a new account tells me my email address is already in use.

Any ideas how to get into contact/fix this issue ?

I tried to look around and it seems that there are no direct contacts.
There is old inactive forum. https://forum.rejectedsoftware.com/groups/rejectedsoftware.dub/

You can try this general email: info@rejectedsoftware.com
This one is for both vibe.d and dub.

If no response, there will be a need to try to contact the dub authors personally about this issue.

I think it's kind of frustrating. If there is a need, I can try to annoy them on the social media, maybe they'll turn up.

I've emailed Sönke and pointed him to this thread.

The dub creator shouldn't even remember creating this anymore. It makes me sad when I see that things in D are old, forgotten, outdated, abandoned. D is the best programming language in the world. But nobody appreciates it. It makes me sad when I see the repositories for over 10 years without an update, most things in dub are for Dlang 1 still.

Wouldn't the appropriate thing to do be dub being officially a part of D, it's advertised as such, but it really isn't such.

It would also make this a non-issue, or at least organizational issue and not a single person who's responsible for it all.

I've posted several times about this in meeting summaries: the foundation is moving toward taking over management of all of the vital ecosystem services, including code.dlang.org. My most recent comments about it were in the summary from our quarterly meeting in March:

https://forum.dlang.org/post/zfmkiqwkkexeaohjsuru@forum.dlang.org

See the section "D ecosystem services".

In our monthly meeting on April 8 (I'll have a summary for that posted this week), we agreed to get together with the maintainers of some of those services this month to discuss how to move forward. Most of them have responded that they can attend (still waiting on a couple), so it looks like we're on for April 29th.

I've already gathered resource requirements from most of them, and I've set up a foundation account with Namecheap to manage domain names. Seb has transferred dlang.io to us, and we have access to the account with dub.pm (Namecheap doesn't support .pm). Walter owns dlang.org, but will transfer it to the foundation before it comes time to renew it.

So we'll be discussing hosting, migration, etc., at the meeting, and formulate a plan to get things moving. At the moment, I'm hoping we'll have everything migrated by the end of the year.

Once this is complete, we'll have multiple admins in multiple time zones. So it's happening, but it's not going to happen overnight.

I'll admit, I rarely read those as big walls of text just tends to go over my head,

But I'm glad you're confirming that it's indeed the goal to take over those projects.

So thank you.
