__Proposal:__
Short summary of the feature.
Keep influxdb Helm charts accessible for end users, and also improving maintainability of the chart(s) moving forward.
__Current behavior:__
Describe what currently happens.
The stable and incubator Helm chart repositories, currently listed on the Helm Hub, have begun a 1 year deprecation timeline. After 6 months they will be de-listed from the Hub. See helm/charts > Status of the Project and Deprecation Timeline.
Ths impact for end users is in 6 months the stable/influxdb will no longer be listed on the Helm Hub. Additionally, since Helm 3 was released, new versions of helm do not even include the stable repo by default. This means after 6 months, if the Influxdb charts are not moved to a new home and listed on the Hub, new users will not have a direct way to discover or install them.
__Desired behavior:__
Describe what you want.
Move influxdb charts to prepare for stable charts repo deprecation timeline.
stable/influxdb from https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/influxdb to the new GitHub project. Note that retaining git history from the beginning is much easier than trying to splice it in later (see goharbor/harbor-helm#48)stable/influxdb charts in helm/charts. See https://github.com/helm/charts/blob/master/PROCESSES.md#deprecating-a-chart__Alternatives considered:__
Describe other solutions or features you considered.
stable/influxdb and influxdata/tick-charts can both exist. For me, I have responsibility for keeping the chart accessible for end-user or helm community. For tick-charts that can be an optional for the end-user who want try some thing different. influxdata organization can make the chart more official, it better for end-user and Helm community.Reference issue: https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger/issues/1976
__Use case:__
Why is this important (helps with prioritizing requests)?
@zoesteinkamp Sorry to bother you. I saw you merged the latest of PR of the influxdb. May you please give some advice. Any feedback on this issue would be good.
I think we should work with @rawkode and whoever else concerned to consolidate efforts in one repo. Be it revival tick repo or a new one as done with jaegertracing/jaeger#1976 .... I do think it would be nice that influx create a new github group for helm maintainers that could consist of influx + community members to maintain the charts (and be admins of the charts repo).
Starting fresh may be better than reviving tick charts perhaps, in particular if influx agree to make this a community effort and we get @scottrigby involved in setting us up with github workflows and such.
Thanks for your interest in this. I've started putting together a plan for this with my colleagues. We'll be reaching out to all the active maintainers that were doing such a great job with the official Helm repo
