The process, as I understand it, is: 1) Have a Github account 2) Be part of the boostorg organization on Github 3) On GitHub go to boostorg/admin and create a new issue asking for admin access ( or write access ) to graph 4) If you are granted admin access to graph you can then make changes to it. If you want to maintain the graph library or help maintain it you can mention it on this mailing list in a separate message with [bgl] or [graph] starting the title of the message that you would like to be the maintainer of the library. The current maintainer is Andrew Sutton , so you might want to try to contact him and see if he is still maintaining the library.

Hi,

There are many quite trivial pull requests on Github for BGL. Can the project responsible please have a look at them? Most of them just fix typos and add more clarity to the documentation.

Thank you, -- Med venlig hilsen / Kind regards, Mads Jensen

Thank you Edward. I will follow your advice. BTW, is there a place where maintainers are listed?

The list of maintainers is at boost/libs/maintainers.txt in the Boost sources on Github, but this list may be out of date. For approving PRs I actually see the name of Noel Belcourt for the 'graph' library. His e-mail is kbelco - at - sandia - dot - gov. We do appear to need a maintainer for 'graph' because the latest 'develop' was never merged to 'master' and there are many PRs against graph that have been largely ignored. Maybe Noel Belcourt has been too busy to work with Boost, so I think another maintainer for 'graph' would be most welcome.

Noel has now indicated he would like someone else to take over, and Andrew Sutton, as the editor and author of the C++ committee Concepts TS, has his hands full. So if Marcin will post an issue on https://github.com/boostorg/admin requesting he be added to the BGL team, we will be happy to welcome a new maintainer and get started catching up on issues, merges, and pull requests. Thanks, --Beman

Volodya, Thanks. I will also follow your advice (in addition to Edward's). I think that graph is in a dire situation where there are pending trivial patches that have not been accepted. -m On Wed, Jul 22, 2015 at 7:18 AM Vladimir Prus wrote:

Marcin,

I believe I've responded to your earlier question:
