No policy, but let common sense be the rule. In any particular case, when/if letting fedora maintainer to be a point of contact makes sense, sure. Oftentimes, it's not practical, some examples off the top of my head include: 1. maintainer can't reproduce problem reported 2. it's an upstream bug, not fedora-specific. One of fedora's principles includes working upstream as much as possible, and that should apply not only to contributers, but to our users as well. 3. maintainer doesn't have time/energy (for whatever reason). lame excuse, but often reality. -- Rex -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
