Well, I think that having all sponsor be uberpackager is enough to give them enough rights to touch the sponsoree packages, and it would be consistent with http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Policy/WhoIsAllowedToModifyWhichPackages#afterinclude to have them able to touch almost everybody packages. (in fact, many packagers who aren't considered to be "Experienced packagers" will be uberpackagers, although they are not necessarily up to the task, just because it was the only possible status in the past). But what would still be missing would be something that allow to setup watchbugzilla and watchcommit per-person and not per-package, such that someone can monitor someone else new packages/packages the person co-maintains. The sponsor would automatically monitor the person he sponsored (and could stop do so when he wants to). -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
