Sometimes when people leave red hat they still want to maintain their Fedora packages (or a subset thereof). Other times they want to give them up because they only maintained them as part of their job. If we definitely know that one of these cases apply we can do something appropriate with package ownership and account info (in the former case, the person needs to update their email address in the Fedora Account System. In the latter case we can remove their acls in the Fedora PackageDB). In many cases, like this one, we just know that the packager has left red hat and don't know what they wish to do. That leaves us with packages where we suspect that the bug reports, commit messages, etc are going to someone who isn't actually working on the packages. We'd like to know what's happening so that we can update the acls to reflect who's actually actively working on the packages. -Toshio
