Hi Daniel,

I would like to add to Ankur's point: while I understand that many of us are 
doing Fedora work voluntarily and the expectations should be set accordingly, I 
believe we should be open to accept help when we realise that we cannot 
realistically commit enough time to the project. In case of asio, I have 
contacted you back in 2018 [1][2]. The pull request I have filed [3] has been 
opened since.
The situation with asio right now is that Fedora with its asio-1.10.8 is not 
only behind arch and gentoo (both at 1.14.0), but also behind debian buster (at 
1.12.2). Resiprocate, which is what was holding back asio update, has been 
retired due to FTBFS, then unorphaned at your request, and then retired again 
after being orphaned for 6+ weeks [4]. There has not been a successful build of 
resiprocate since 2016 [5].
Again, I perfectly understand that you have a backlog and that updating asio is 
not on top on your priority list. Being sceptical about co-maintainership 
offers seems counter-productive though, as there are things which need fixing 
and other people willing to step in.

Best regards,
Julian
