Considering bringing plugin under pytest-dev about pytest-httpserver HOT 2 OPEN

For what it's worth, my experience with pytest-localserver is that the core pytest team has been pretty hands-off. A couple of them have offered advice and opinions here and there, in the same way that any other contributor might, but they've never tried to exercise any sort of "editorial control" over the project.

What that means for this project is that, presumably, you would still be the maintainer if you transfer it into pytest-dev. You'd just have to give a couple other people from pytest-dev maintainer access, just to ensure that the project could be continued if you stop working on it for any reason, but I'd expect that they wouldn't use that access unless it truly becomes necessary. Other than that the project remains yours.

Hi Sorin,

Sorry for the late reply, I missed your issue for some reason.
There's a discussion about it starting at pytest-dev/pytest-localserver#43 (comment) and also here: pytest-dev/pytest-localserver#46

In general I'm ok with moving it to pytest-dev if I can still be the maintainer of this project, but I admit I haven't made any steps proactively to move this project to there.
