There needs to be somebody in the Fedora community with a long-term commitment to each package. Perhaps the term "owner" is politically incorrect but nonetheless there is always going to be somebody who knows more about that package than anybody else in Fedora. I think it's counterproductive to downgrade that responsibility, or even worse pretend that it doesn't matter --- and Kevin's lead statement in this thread is damn close to pretending that. Sorry Kevin, we are not interchangeable parts. regards, tom lane -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
