I see 2 things that could help: * use the fedora extras build system and procedures. I find legacy procedures very complicated. The legacy procedures have merit, there are more verifications, but maybe such procedures should be used in the future when there is a community. * open fedora core to the community. That way people from the community interested in a package could help maintaining it in core and it would help a lot when it transitions to legacy. Currently core is closed to the community and core maintainers often don't collaborate with the community for packaging issues. In the current situation somebody interested in a package in legacy have to learn everything about that package, knowing that he has no control on the package in current and devel release. Co-maintainership in core with community members would help a lot having somebody still taking care of the package in legacy. -- Pat -- fedora-legacy-list mailing list fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
