This makes sense to me as well. Summary: Maintainer requesting ownership of an owned package => request is queued Dropping ownership => at will Taking orphans => at will Maintainer transfer => Present owner should be able to reassign to a new owner within cvsextras. Orphaned packages have ACLs dropped back to "open for cvsextras." -Toshio
