Tl;dr one of the founders is holding up the infra not allowing any change. According to someone who worked on Manjaro, it was trivially easy to get this fixed, but that single person simply wouldn’t approve it. Last I checked they sent the founder an ultimatum: either hand over the project or see the staff walk. I suppose the staff walked.
I think you’re refering to this. The community appears to be in the process of setting up their own association and eventually the infrastructure and assets will be transferred to them. We’ll see how that shakes out.
Why isn’t this an automated processs for them?
Why isn’t it for everyone? How often I see this with, I mean, major actors is head shakingly baffling.
I work in tech for telco and the amount of people around me who have zero clue about x509/TLS/certificates in general is absolutely baffling
I work in a telco and I have no clue what you just said to me.
But in tech?
Yes but with engines.
Well then you probably don’t encrypt a lot of network traffic…
You’d be shocked!
I wonder if they are still on an old cert system.
This came up last time the cert expired iirc.

Sad. With FOSS you have to be able to let go.
