Transfer of pyfakefs to pytest-dev?

After the successful transfer of pytest-order (thank you for that smooth experience!), I have been thinking about the transfer of another library - pyfakefs - where I am a contributor. I have been discussing this with the package maintainer, John McGehee, who is also in favor for this, and decided to first ask here if that is feasible. pyfakefs (https://github.com/jmcgeheeiv/pyfakefs) is a library that mocks the file system. It has originally been developed by Mike Bland at Google, later transferred to GitHub (after the shutdown of Google Code in 2011), where John McGehee has forked it, added direct support for unittest and doctest, and has maintained it since then (with my help since a few years ago). Later a contributor added support for pytest via the fs fixture, with more support for pytest following eventually. Today the fs fixture is probably the main means to access pyfakefs, judging by the issues and the dependent repositories. So, while pyfakefs is not a pure pytest plugin, and it doesn't follow the naming convention pytest-xx, we thought that it would be a good idea to transfer it to pytest-dev, with the following goals: - ensure continued maintenance - increase compatibility with pytest and pytest-plugins - improve visibility of the package, especially for pytest developers - ideally, benefit from the larger community to get more code reviews and issue reports For reference see also https://github.com/jmcgeheeiv/pyfakefs/issues/590 What do you think?
