Further openvpn-radiusplugin development

[ValdikSS]

Hello everyone.

As you can see, I don't maintain this plugin anymore and don't respond to the issues and pull requests created here.
This is because I no longer use this plugin. I'm not savvy in C++ enough, the plugin itself is badly written (it is originally made by Ralf Luebben in 2005), I tried to fix multiple issues back in 2015 which were hitting me, but apparently not all of them, and just recently ended up rewriting the plugin from scratch in C (a shim-plugin for OpenVPN) + Python (does all processing) in just 2 days, which suits my use case and works better.

Since this repository is still have some attention, people create new issues and pull requests here, I'd like to transfer it to someone who will maintain and support it, than to just archive it.

Tagging everyone who created pull requests here:
@wannabehero, @simondeziel, @andrejsh, @chipitsine

There are also people who forked the repository and updated it:
@computergeek125, @alexelisenko, @clement10601, @Xartos

If any of you are willing to continue the development, I'll transfer the repository and there would be a redirect to your repository from this repository.

I’ve been in the same situation in the past (with the mongodb plug-in for chef) and I found the best way to avoid this situation in the future is to transfer to a GitHub Org with more than one maintainer who can ensure new people can easily be added.

Can you please create a new github Org for this, and add the people you mentioned as team members?

I’ll also reach out to a company I know that maintains a private fork.

Hi. Sorry to hear that but I understand that maintaining problematic code in an unfamiliar programming language is not an easy or thankful task.

Is your new C+python radius interface available on github?

AIUI there is a repository in the OpenVPN community : https://github.com/OpenVPN-Community/openvpn-radiusplugin so development can continue there.

If anyone can help solve the issues with this plugin or has a working version where the Deferred problems are resolved, I am interested in purchasing it.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
