Complete silence. In fact *no* ticket reported there haven't seen any activity in months. Not exactly confidence inspiring for the future of the project. [1] https://pagure.io/fm-orchestrator/issue/1640 I've tried *so* hard to get on board with modularity but I think I'm done with modules now in Fedora. In the early days the people who maintained MBS were super helpful and worked hard to fix the bugs I found in it, but now it feels like those days are gone and still it's just hurdle after hurdle. All I want is an easy life, and I thought modules were that, but it's impossible to get anything done in a timely manner, builds have required so much babysitting, the MBS requiring (already scarce) releng resources to intervene periodically.... Honestly, it's been just exhausting and demoralising how many man-hours have gone to waste. So I've pulled all my packages back into mainline Fedora since that seems to be the path of least resistance even though I will once again have to maintain multiple branches of my whole stack of packages. Interesting experiment, maybe, but if there's going to be no commitment to pay the on-going cost of infra maintenance and fix the design-flaws or whatever serious problem is currently holding back MBS, then I have to end the experiment for my own sanity at least. mbooth -- Mat Booth http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
