Hi, I've added few packages last year using the new package process: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/New_package_process_for_existing_contributors I'm not sure which fedora body (FPC or FESCO) is responsible for this document, that's why that mail is sent here. In all cases, I'm interested on other's feedback on that issue. My experience with the new package process is that the review process in Step 6 doesn't work. For some of my packages it took 3 months for a reviewer to appear, some others more, some where reviewed faster. My understanding is that it depends on how interesting the package is, how many packagers you know, or whether you enter the review swap market. In the first case I speculate it would be easier to review popular end-user applications, in the second we make reviews possible only for people who can ask other packagers for the review, and the latter requires someone who brings a new package to do extra work. I've tried all of these, and don't like any of them. I don't have a solution to bring extra resources to reviewing (which will be the ideal), but I'd like to propose an amendment to allow bringing packages even if no reviewers are available (the typical case). Step 6: ... If the proposed package is not reviewed for 2 months, the package must be reviewed by the submitter, and a git module with the master branch will be approved. That is packages which are self reviewed will be added in the next fedora release, but not the current or previous ones. I don't like it, as it still sucks, but sucks much less from having a list a long list such as: http://fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus/NEW.html regards, Nikos -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
