We *already* have both. Beryl is in Fedora Extras currently. With the

And fedora packager reponse quality as well !
We cant change defaults just because the package maintainers within
Fedora dont respond. The solution to that is to post to this list with
bug reports to check on progress if there is none for a unreasonable
amount of time. This is one of the reasons why I have been advocating
weekly irc development meetings. Raise the issue there and solving it
should make it more transparent.
Careful. There's lots of bugs that could pop up like that. Without
some kind of "importance" system, you'll get lots of noise. For
example, I have a vim bug opened long ago that has just sat there. Is
it critical? No. Is it damn annoying? Yes.
"Unreasonable amount of time" is subjective.
I have had bugs sit in bugzilla for *years* without any attention. Some
bugs seem to get orphaned or assigned to dead people or something and no
follow-up is ever performed.
Maybe we need a report that shows the open bugs that have been sitting
without update for more than 30/60/90 days.
