Hiyas, I just realized that the actual AWOL/MIA Maintainer Policy is in my opionion missing a major detail. It is only about one package that is neglected but I guess in reality an AWOL/MIA maintainer will neglect all of his packages. For this reason the policy should target how to proceed with all packages of the maintainer, e.g. checking how many issues are open and whether or not they are up-to-date. Also the Policy does not tell what to do if noone wants to adopt a package from an missing maintainer.
I think the Policy is aimed at the package level because each package should get a new maintainer, so you don't have to get the whole lot. However, after the first package is transferred, I think the procedure for the others should be short-circuited to the last step to speed up things The question about what to do in case we don't find a new maintainer is still open... -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
