Which is not what he is saying. It is sad that such things happen at all, but he claims they happen routinely, as a matter of fact. That is an accusation I strongly object to. Btw, proven packagers are approved by FESCo. I fail to see how any Red Hat supervisor could go around that. Btw, these things are hardly limited to Red Hat. E.g., who is to stop two packagers trying to get a set of packages into Fedora from perfunctorily reviewing each others packages? > > > >I respectfully suggest that you be silent if you do not know the facts. > >Your credibility is diminishing rapidly with every untrue statement you > >put forth. > I respectfully disagree with you.
