hi guys, I've been enjoying Fedora for a couple of years as a user and it would be nice if I can contribute back to the project I like. I slowly tried to get familiar with how fedora packaging is organised and what bugzilla rules are. Was even able to contribute to DNF5 source code with help of the community members.
I work as a software engineer and live in Melbourne. I'm primarily interested in web related tech, containerisation and Emacs but I would probably like other topics too. I just like computer stuff. On this note, I would like to resurrect emacs-php-mode [1] but this package has a dependency called eask which has been packaged by Peter Oliver a year ago and has been waiting for review since [2] (he has just updated it a day ago - big big thanks). I wonder what is the common procedure to find a reviewer for a package (eask in this case). I also found this package-review-swap concept [3]. Very nice and I wish I could review someone's package in exchange of eask but I'm not in a packager group and I'm very much not confident in my packaging skills atm. Also what would I need to do to join the packagers group. Do I need to wait for eask review, try to resurrect emacs-php-mode and then try to look for a sponsor? Is it the path or is there a better way? Thank you and nice to meet you all! 1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1552601 2. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2333620 3. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/about-the-package-review-swaps-category/86090
