Over time, many open-source maintainers face the same problem: they
lack the time to do all of the work that their project needs, and no
one else is stepping up to provide adequate help. Maintainers, though,
are often reluctant to throw in the towel. The result is suboptimal
all around; the maintainer is stressed out, project quality suffers,
and users face security risks that they may not be fully aware of. At
the 2026 Open
Source Summit North America, Robin Bender Ginn spoke about this
problem, when it might be time for maintainers to pass the torch, and
the responsibilities of users.
