I think this is the root cause and a real problem (I complained about this myself several few times on this list).
Yes, ofc. I've submitted multiple PRs. Some of them haven't been merged. Later I got these packages through the Non-responsive maintainer procedure, manually merged the PRs and pushed to updates.
Instead we should start thinking about ways to actually fix the root cause problem (and also how to integrate Fedora packaging much better with actual users, hopefully "converting" some users into packagers).
I think it will be very difficult. Many maintainers simply don't have enough free time and their packages haven't been updated for ages. They also don't check email and never accept pull requests.
