Well, in my case, I have explicitly referred to "dropping ownership of further packages" after having given a rationale at least once. It wasn't meant as a threat, because the packages and their bugfix updates would be considered unimportant anyway by those people who would choose to confine the packagers and their updates. The real threat was in the update policy proposals. It surprised me to see FESCo fight like that in a meeting. Some members are beside themselves in rage. Steering is hard, let's go shopping. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
