That's basically what we always had. Only a small number of people used it. > Why all the overhead of rules early? Well, my proposal is not that much more comlicated: All packages in Fedora Extras shall normally be maintained by a group of maintainers. Each package normally should have at least three maintainers in total. There is one primary maintainer and a primary maintainer per distribution release (both often will be identical); he should have at least one co-maintainer per release. Maintainers and sponsors are encouraged to use co-maintainership to educate new contributors an help them getting involved and integrated into the Project. Maintainers should hand over packages to co-maintainers when they have lots of packages to improve the quality, share the load and get people involved. All the other stuff is just meant "why we need it with some more details" CU th -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
