If no one has stepped up yet, I guess we don't have anyone at the moment who feels they can assign resources to do this. Community folks: I totally understand the point of the system we have in place, but I do see how it doesn't quite address the case of upstream developers or individuals who'd just like to maintain their few packages. I do understand that we'd like all package maintainers to participate in general packaging activities, but at a practical level we mostly tend to look after our packages and what emerges from this is that our collective activities take care of the complete package set. So, here, I'd rather have Joan, who is the developer and has been actively engaging with the community to get the package included (including going through the review), and so who I'd trust to look after their package, on the team than not. So, unless someone has really strong concerns about it, I'm going to sponsor Joan to the packager group. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
