Fedora is a community project. I would assume that when someone leaves Red Hat, their @redhat.com email address is deactivated, at which point their FAS account with that @redhat.com address will no longer work. Fedora is a community project, but the basic fact is that there is a significant amount of @redhat.com involvement underlying that community. Somebody at Red Hat knows when an @redhat.com address goes invalid; it would make the Fedora processes easier if that information was communicated when the address is also in FAS. I don't see a problem with _any_ company with corporate involvement with Fedora having the same ability to say "this email is no longer valid" and triggering an immediate "unresponsive maintainer" process. It is just that Red Hat is the prime example. -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
