code.dlang community transfer repository

[Jesse Phillips via Digitalmars-d]

Dub provides an easy way to utilizes 3rd party libraries, github 
provides an easy way to revive a project no longer being 
maintained by the author. Can we come up with a solution within 
code.dlang to take advantage of this?

While I'd prefer if the project owner would proved commit rights 
to their contributors (or subset of such). This doesn't usually 
happen, and you can't always get into contact with them.

My example is dini[1]. There is a pull request to get it working 
with 2.067, it hasn't been merged in the last 29 days with latest 
modifications being from January.

In order to keep the projects in code.dlang.org relevant, I think 
it is important that we provide a way to have the primary project 
change hands, rather than require the fork be placed on to 
code.dlang.org too[2].
