The policy tries to respect that, while still being effective. I have put 3 weeks before the procedure is started, a first comment, a remainder after 2 weeks and then 2 weeks before the procedure of orphaning which will still leave time for the packager to react and will put the issue in the public arena. This can certainly be improved, just propose. The delay can be expanded, for example, the issue is more, in my opinion to have those bugs tracked than to have those fixed in a given time. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
