Hi All,
As discussed already some time ago on fedora-maintainers list, Aaron
Kurtz is
not responding to inquiries / bugs about his gnome-applet-sensors
package:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-maintainers/2007-May/msg00986.html
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235655
I'm interested in picking up this package. Since I'm now a
co-maintainer of the
lm-sensors package and active in lm-sensors upstream I would like to move
forward with this.
The reporter of the bug in question has already done a first contact
attempt as
required by the AWOL-policy:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Policy/AWOL_Maintainers
I've just added a second contact attempt to the bug in question, and as
required by the AWOL policy I'm now sending a mail to the
maintainers-list
about this. Does anyone know howto contact Aaron and / or whats up
with Aaron?
Thanks & Regards,
Hans

I could take over gnome-applet-netspeed if there are no objections.
Keep in mind though, that if upstream turns out to be dead, as it
seems now, I'll retire it.
I've only begun the awol procedure for gnome-applet-sensors, but if aaron has
other packages that are being neglected too, you can request them to be
orphaned by FESco, riding along on this awol procedure.
About gnome-applet-netspeed, of it becomes available, go ahead and take it,
however I must say I don't like you writing: "if upstream turns out to be dead,
as it seems now, I'll retire it.", that seems like a bad policy to me. I
maintain many packages where upstream is dead. As long as users find them
usefull and they don't break left and right because of dependency changes, why
abandon them?
Regards,
Hans
