I have made an unofficial package for some open source project. The owner of that project likes it and wants me to move the to the official group.<p>Should I do it? I feel like a mother bird letting go of a baby because I worked hard on this project all weekend.<p>Pros:<p>* Get more visibility and help from community
* Solidify the project ecosystem by having everything in one place<p>Cons:<p>* Lose ownership of the repo
* Lose creative control<p>Feedback welcomed.
do you want to have to maintain this for years?<p>do you want to see someone else come up with the same idea and transfer their work to the official group and see your work ignored?<p>Do you want the social recognition of making a officially recognized contribution to the OSS community?<p>Handing over work to others frees you up to work on new projects.
