When I meet a maintainer in the project that stated to me "I have to

maintaining their components as a part of their job not because they
want to scratch an itch and want to!
There is a third reason for maintaining a component: it is a dependency
for another component the packager maintains. This is applicable for
_all_ packagers, be they from Red Hat or the community. You either
conveniently omitted this reason to make an argument or never thought of
it, in which case I respectfully ask you to butt out of this thread
because you do not know what you are talking about.
Oh in my case it was an "primary" component no dependency that Red Hat
maintainer could not update until he got approval but for the sake of
your argument and concision let's lower my IQ to an rock ( which I do
believe is 20 ) and say I dont have freaking flying idea what I'm
talking about.
