I do understand that, but I hope they do watch their cvs commit notifications closely and notice any changes merged by other committers, because if such changes are overwritten (and that has happened before), the entire system fails. * There's a larger group of people who can't handle all their bugzilla traffic. They refer to bugzilla notification mails as "spam". This has been discussed several times before. You can file a bug, and it won't be looked at. You can file a bug and get a reply, but the issue won't be fixed. You can ping such people repeatedly, and the issue would remain unfixed even after many months. It's tiresome for reporters to deal with such tickets and the additional disturbances from triagers or scripts that threaten to close aging tickets for EOL. > (B) have a process to handle things if the owner is MIA > > Let's take the "I need X.Y.Z" case. Are any examples known about X.Y.Z version upgrade requests that have not been fulfilled and have been a problem before? Or is it just FUD, to believe that someone from the provenpackager group (is that the final acl group name?) runs mad in cvs/koji/bodhi and prepares such version upgrades without a very good rationale and without permission from FESCo? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
