I have a question about the unresponsive mantainer policy [1].

The unresponsive maintainers policy is to be honest crap and to much in favor of the maintainer.

Fesco allegedly was looking into it but you know...

What really is needed here is to drop the user ownership module altogether and allow every contribute access to every component or use group ownership model on components instead followed by an email address component@fedoraproject which is the components email address and is stored in a imap folder.

Contributes could easily be added or allowed to add themselves to components group and subscribed to the components imap folder in the process which yields far more and faster access to start participate and contributing then the current implemented model does.

Atleast you would not have to run around half the internet chasing the maintainer just to try to see if he's active or not and if you can fix or generally start working on the component he's allegedly supposed to be maintaining.

If efficiency was Fedora's strong suit FPC would have been dismantled by now...
