That's a potential security problem. If I, for example, can get commit access to any idle program by claiming it when the original maintainer is most busy, with no review or doublecheck of my quality as a new maintainer, I can commit madness on a lot of low maintenance projects. Given so many thousands of Fedora packages, it could get fascinatingly risky, especially if I start committing intriguing little '%post' procedures that interfere in subtle ways with other packages. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
