PEP 541 Request: py360convert

[BrianPugh]

Project to be claimed

py360convert: https://pypi.org/project/py360convert

Your PyPI username

BrianPugh: https://pypi.org/user/brianpugh

Reasons for the request

3 years ago the author updated the readme to include:

A new library including more fuctionality for 360 is under contruction by my colleague. This repo will be depreciated then.

AFAIK, no replacement repo has been created.

2 years ago, I opened a github issue requesting a new pypi release for bugfixes that have been merged in, but not released to pypi. No response.

2 weeks ago, I directly emailed the author the following (email not provided here to help protect his privacy, but can be found from his resume on his personal website):

Hello!
I was wondering if you could add me as a maintainer to your py360convert repo (both on github, and on pypi)? Just a few minor things need some TLC and a new release on pypi. I have a lot of experience in maintaining python projects, you can check my profile below. Thanks!

Sincerely,
Brian

If ownership is transferred to me, intend to merge a few existing maintenance PRs and release version(s) to pypi.

Maintenance or replacement?

Hi @BrianPugh,

We are working to contact the owner to determine if they're reachable and have sent them a courtesy message.

Final determination regarding project ownership will be made by the PyPI Administrators when the research process is complete.

Thanks.

Thank you!

@sunset1995 can you give me more permissions on github? I'd like to add pypi token as a secret for github actions. Thanks!
