Anything you could think of. For example, an upstream developer/contributor might want to become a package maintainer or co-maintainer. A Fedora package heavy-user might want to become a maintainer or co-maintainer.

You wouldn't ask them to first submit other packages for review, would you? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
