An example of what, though? Flathub's system/pipeline/foundations/community is very different from ours. So using it as an example to project what may happen in Fedora in the future if these negative assumptions about prospective maintainers came true is a bit of a leap for me. :) Bundling has not been forbidden in Fedora for a while, and I haven't noticed package maintainers bundling bits everywhere now as a result. If that does become a problem, I'm sure we'll deal with it and evolve our guidelines accordingly. Anyway, in this particular case, I'm happy to sponsor Joan. All our work in Fedora is done in the open, so if anyone does have any concerns, they can inform me---as they'd do with any of the folks I (we) sponsor. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
