Abstract
Taking over maintenance of an existing open source application can be a scary prospect yet exciting and fun at the same time. I want to talk a little bit about how I ended up taking over maintenance of WebOb a Python HTTP request/response library that is used heavily by a huge variety of projects. An overview of what I will cover: ° About me ° Taking over maintenance for WebOb ° What WebOb is ° Who uses it, and why it is important ° Backwards compatibility…? ° Where do you go from here? ° Questions!!!
