In any case, what I wrote was the procedure I documented it when I set
it up. If all of that documentation was lost, then I don't know what to
say but that's not what was intended.
I drove the change that made this happen. I made sure the documentation
(in the wiki at the time) referenced the procedure. If that was lost
after the time when I was able to be very active in Fedora, then that's
a sad state of affairs and I don't know why that would happen, but it
would be really good if it could un-happen. Did FESCo revert the policy
change or something?
Somewhat recently, the Packager sponsor policy [1] has been rewritten.
The history is that moved content over from the wiki to the Package
Maintainer Docs, then edited it to make things more clear. Later, I
realized that what I edited was actually intended to be a FESCo-approved
policy, just not clearly marked as such in the wiki and editable by
anyone. So I went to FESCo to get the material officially approved - see
the pull request [2].
The result of this is that it is currently a FESCo policy that for new
packages, the sponsorship is requested by blocking the FE-NEEDSPONSOR
Bugzilla, and for all other paths by filing a Pagure ticket. The reason
why I wrote the pull request like that is that at that time, there was
discussion about this on devel where I proposed using Pagure tickets for
new packages also, but got negative feedback [3].
The gist of that negative feedback was "very few sponsors are looking at
the Pagure tickets, we cannot process that many". From this thread I get
the opposite impression, that Pagure tickets are processed quickly and
FE-NEEDSPONSOR blockers are not looked at. If so, I propose the policy
is updated to ask for a Pagure ticket in every case.
