His/her work would be the following:
- identifiy (with bugsquad's help) the orphan packages that have lots of
unresolved bugs or are severely outdated,
- do the same for packages that have a maintainer but are in a similar
situation,
- try to find packagers or apprentices to take care of them. Not
necessarily make them become maintainer, but at least solve users bugs.
- try to find maintainers for orphan packages.
I would suggest that registering nobody as a mailing list, so that
every interested packagers could join to help.
I forgot about this idea, and support it without hesitation.
Maybe a better idea, would to have "[orphan alert]" (or something
similar) in the subject of postes to the mageia-dev list. That way no
need to subscribe to another mailing list, and those particularly
interested in orphaned packages could filter their messages to put these
in a separate folder.
And of course, everyone interested in packaging/development would see
these posts.
Just an idea :)
