They are listed in the owners file and have a maintainer. If you want details, you could email the maintainer or open a BZ ticket for the component. > How are they still blocking when they are closed?

Closing a bug does not automatically remove the blocker. It needs to be done manualy (clear the "Bug 179039 blocks" field, which appears to have been done now :-) ) Cheers, Christian -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
