Fedora must be looked at as more than just a "hobby project" even though it is a hobby for some.
There are many casual maintainers who maintain one or two packages. We shouldn't force them to leave Fedora.
It's an OS that many rely on and $25 is a somewhat trivial cost for improved security.
There are many contributors from countries where $25 is a lot. We shouldn't set up financial barriers. This is a dead end.
With your suggestion of sponsors to cover such devices - how does that work for new packagers? It seems pretty impossible to do such a thing and tons of money would simply be wasted on packagers that did very little to nothing after becoming a packager.
They will be able to request one after they get more than 2 packages. -- Sincerely, Vitaly Zaitsev (vitaly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
