Re: Pending ACLs

Not works.

You need then talk with the requester and then decide to deny or not.
And if he tries again, do the process again.
What you can' t do is letting anyone waiting or making the package hostage.

About the notifications, yes, everyone get notifications if set your email properly or use @fedoraproject, and is working well as delivering. 
So increase the amount of notifications or do it in public lists will not fix the issue that is really is, the package 
owner. Would even piss of more the maintainers or other users ( in case of public )

If he decide to ignore or just not reading, then all efforts to " increase" or " improve" notifications system is useless.

Packages should have at least two lead owners and one group that can take equal decisions over it.

Sometimes a maintainer doesn't want to approve ACLs for "reasons" but doesn't want to reject the request for various reasons including the requestor re-request of denied requests.

All the ACL's should be accepted, doesn't matter the level.
And why i think of this ?

Two simple reasons:
- The packager abandoned the package, because several reasons, and then is far away from Fedora systems for some time
- The packager is actively using Fedora, but seen not care to even properly take care of his package, not in the minimal sense to deny the ACL, which would be acceptable.

In both cases, the package became hostage to someone that for sure aren't caring much for the distro, unless prove me wrong.

Well, the recent pkgdb is already quite a bit old and it should definitively
auto-accept the watch* ACLs.
Do you have a link so I could look at the package/history?

Thanks,
