Subject: Re: Revamping the non responsive maintainer process
So give me the permission [1] as well as the others who requested it
before me.
Apparently the current owner doesn't care. You can compare the
version
history in koji [2] and [3] and if he doesn't care about one package,
it
is reasonable to doubt that the other packages will be in better
state.
The problem here is that pkgdb requests are not auto approved after
some timeout period if the maintainer hasn't reacted.
That would be sweet if it would be auto approved.
Do you want a backdoor permitting all script kidz and overzealous, but
unexperienced newcomers to automatically take over packages?
I regret having to say so, but the unpleasant fact is, Fedora does have
such "participants".
When I do not react upon requests, I usually either missed or forgot
about the request or deliberately do not yet want to approve.
That said, what I feel is missing in Fedora's pkgdb web-forms is an
option to "leave a comment to applicant" and an "some automated reminder
mechanisms" to remind "approvers" about pending requests.
