Comment on Void Linux project leader has disappearedparent

I feel like this is more of a human problem than a tech problem. Tools like github should allow org owners to declare a "will" of sorts when they go missing, including conditions to meet, who has access and contact methods. But maybe that puts an unacceptable burden on services like this.

You first say it's a human problem rather than tech then go on to suggest solving it with tech!

Solving the human problem with humans - trust someone else with the keys if you have a collaborative project

Writing a document explaining how a customer service rep at some company should go about transferring ownership of your account is not solving the problem with tech. I listed things that the document should include that a human can execute, not an automated system.

I think it was on my part that jumped to code when I read “conditions to meet” there then

My apologies!
