Dear all,
Over the past months FESCo has been considering my proposal to have a lighter weight process to get needed changes for Fedora packages (whether getting a PR merged and built, or a package branched, etc.) - since the alternatives up to now is just pinging a PR or bugzilla issue, or escalating and getting the maintainer declared non responsive.
We think we have a suggested process that would work well - thank you to everyone in the committee for their inputs - but would like to get community feedback on this, since we’re only human and there might be something we miss.
Hopefully this balances out the need to get fixes in, with not bypassing maintainers’ concerns (or surprising them with a fait accompli if they’re on vacation, busy at a conference, etc.). But please chime in and let us know of any improvement we can make to this before it lands.
Best regards - Michel
