Hi @hansdejongehv, Thank you for being here. In the event that a GitHub user passes away, we can work with an authorized individual to determine what happens to the account’s content. You can invite someone to manage your user owned repositories if you are not able to. Please see https://help.github.com/en/github/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-user-account/maintaining-ownership-continuity-of-your-user-accounts-repositories for more information about succession planning. |
