I think part of the problem is that I don't think the proposal has enough flesh on its bones for people not to see it causing all kinds of problems somewhere. Or vice versa seeing not enough to see it being worthwhile for a beginner. [For many a developer, PR's aren't that interesting to most developers and not what they think about when looking at packaging. Running fedpkg and making a spec file work on my system and through the complicated koji+bodhi+mbs+.. stack is real packaging.] So we need a real proposal with an end to end idea of what is being done, what is to be learned, and how it is to be 'watched' by real developers to make sure people are learning things. -- Stephen J Smoogen. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's Law. All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on a BBS... time to shutdown -h now. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
