[Dbix-class] Avé! Duci Novo, Similis Duci Seneci!*

[Peter Rabbitson]

Greetings,

A short mini-update is in order, now that things are somewhat back to 
normal.

There are couple super-pressing issues that call for an emergency maint 
release of the 0.0828xx. Namely to unblock the ability of DBD::SQLite to 
be released, and to fix intermittent issues within the cpantesters 
infrastructure ( which is currently going down from time to time due to 
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=110429 )

I plan to focus my attention on the above exclusively in the coming weeks.

Once the immediate backlog is cleared, I will put out a more substantial 
description on how I see the medium term activity around this project.

Several notes to start with:
   - To ensure no ambiguity: the governance experiment is null and void, 
the repository will be updated in short order to reflect this
   - PAUSE permissions have been adjusted to reflect the on-list 
agreement, current state as follows: curl -sL 
http://cpan.org/modules/06perms.txt.gz | zgrep '^DBIx::Class,'
   - I am *not* planning to pass the project to anyone else in the 
foreseeable future ( yes, this is in stark contrast with my original 
thoughts back in 2016, more on that later )
   - The github repository has been disconnected from the shadowcat 
hosted one, and for the time being will act as the "main repo" for 
upcoming work
   - All RTs and github PRs continue being taken in consideration, just 
like before. If you do not receive a reply to a pressing concern until 
the end of this month - please ping the issue/ticket in question.

That's it for now, more once 0.082850 takes place

Stay tuned!
