However these top level package are usually well maintained and already have enough bandwidth to work on it on Fedora side, for me my added value would be more on the different missing dependent packages, with less people involved. > > With more details, In order to build a beta version of our big container image containing the most common build tools we need, and used by hundreds of teams/thousands of developers daily, I have been able to use (dirty) workarounds for now while waiting for more official builds. Sometimes I shamelessly stole the fedora 40 rpm package, other times I had built the rpm for RHEL 9 locally and pushed it in our own private rpm repositories.

Normally I already did open the bugzillas for all these, and try to follow up when one dependency is made available. For some of these packages who seem to have busy maintainers, once I will feel a bit more confortable with the maintainer role and what it implies, I will eventually propose to be a co-maintainer, at least for the EPEL branches. For now I will ask Carl Georges if he accepts to mentor me on couple of the packages he maintains himself, so that I learn with someone experimented how all this works (it’s still quite new to me). > > Cheers, > Romain > -- > _______________________________________________ > 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 Howdy Romain, It's neat to hear how your company is using UBI, RHEL, and EPEL. I love your attitude of lobbying your employer to contribute back to Open Source. I'd be happy to be your mentor and package sponsor. I'll follow up with you off list on the next steps in that process. -- Carl George -- _______________________________________________ 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
