A package in the Fedora collection is maintained by at least one person. It can happen that this person leaves without notice. It can also happen that there are co-maintainers, but the multiple maintainers don't communicate with eachother. And it can happen that the package "owner" owns packages without being active, and co-maintainers expect the owner to be more active or drop the package and not pretend that packages are being maintained. http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/sylpheed -> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/843901 -> sylpheed-3.3.0beta1 is available -> Reported: 2012-07-27 11:44 EDT by Upstream Release Monitoring -- Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) - Linux 3.5.3-1.fc17.x86_64 loadavg: 0.05 0.06 0.11 -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
