It's not a matter of being interested or not but rather the fact that geoclue project has always been a freedesktop project and this app being part of geoclue. I actually wanted to at least move bugzilla to GNOME but Bastien argued that it wouldn't help in getting geoclue integrated into KDE and other linux-based OSes or to get contributions from other communities. Anyway for the record, I'm not exactly against hosting this on GNOME infra. :) -- Regards, Zeeshan Ali (Khattak) ________________________________________ Befriend GNOME: http://www.gnome.org/friends/ _______________________________________________ [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team Release-team lurker?
