As per the policy for nonresponsive package maintainers [1], this is a ticket to contact Douglas E. Warner (FAS account: silfreed) regarding the libconcord and concordance packages. These packages have not been updated by the maintainer since 2009. I request that Douglas cede ownership of these packages. I would like to take over maintenance for them. Douglas, please respond.
Douglas, please respond.
Sorry, I had seen the new builds from Adam Williamson <awilliam> so I assumed the packages are on their way.. Is there additional action necessary? I believe it's only currently in Fedora 19; so perhaps it needs backported to other branches.
If you are interested in helping maintain these packages, feel free to apply to them in pkgdb and I will approve.
Yes, I would like to help maintain them. I tried to apply in pkgdb but I am getting: "swt2c must be in one of these groups: ('cvsadmin', 'packager', 'provenpackager', 'newpackager') to hold the commit acl". I suppose that I must get added to the packager group first. I'll have to figure out how to do that, unless you know how. Thanks for responding, Scott
According to [1], to add me as a co-maintainer, you can just open up a ticket in the package-sponsors trac instance [2] stating that you are a package owner who would like to add me as a co-maintainer. Thanks, Scott [1]: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group#Become_a_co-maintainer [2]: https://fedorahosted.org/packager-sponsors/
Douglas?
I don't have sponsor status right now, so I'm trying to get my build environment working again so I can review Adam's patches to try to backport to older Fedoras
You don't need to have sponsor status - if you want to add a co-maintainer you can just submit a ticket at the link above.
Filed a ticket here: https://fedorahosted.org/packager-sponsors/ticket/80 It might be helpful if you get your fedora account set up in advance.
Thanks. Fedora account should be setup already AFAIK - swt2c is my userid.
Thanks - I promise I'll stop bugging you now. :-)
