Why not just keep the infrastructure (enabling the fedora legacy repo) and let everybody do whatever they want? If a maintainer wants to keep a package alive he keeps it alive, if another only wants to correct security flaws only he does it. If somebody wants to correct security issues in other's packages he does it and so on. Only communication is required, then, meaning that a packager could be able to communicate that he stops maintaining a package. It could involve something similar with the orphan page. And also something like the owners file, but with distribution versions, such that it is possible to have different maintainer for different fedora versions. Adding packages that are also added to devel should be easy, the only complicated issue being adding a package to FE3 only. -- Pat -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
