Welcome!

Since name collisions are fun, I want to clarify for everyone else that
we are not the same person. I'm jistone, he's jostone, and I'm sure this
won't confuse anyone... :)

You might want to join https://matrix.to/#/#golang:fedoraproject.org -
the Golang SIG members are there, and you might get one of them to
sponsor you.

Note that there is a specific template to use for unretiring (not
unorphaning - the package is retired because it was orphaned for too
long), and it would have asked for the Bugzilla issue for the re-review
- the package would have to be reviewed again as if it's a new package.

I can't link to the template now since it seems OpenID is acting up
right now :(

This provides the full instructions for becoming a packager:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Joining_the_Package_Maintainers/

and this for unretiring

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Retirement_Process/#claiming

and these are the packaging guidelines for Golang

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Golang/

HTH,

Introduction / unorphaning package request

2024-02-23 Thread Joshua Stone 
Hello everyone,

I've been a Linux user since my friends showed me Ubuntu 9.04! That was a
lifesaver when I needed an OS with a functional office suite after my MS
Office 2007 license expired and Windows Vista was having stability issues.
After multi-booting Windows and Linux for several years, I had decided that
I no longer boot Windows enough to warrant the disk space, so I've been
running Linux exclusively for over a decade.

When I was first using Linux, I would distro hop between Ubuntu, Linux
Mint, and Fedora, finally before settling on Fedora right around the time
it switched to Wayland by default.

I think Fedora has been very beneficial for me because it's given me enough
of a background on RPM-based distros to have a career where I can use Linux
professionally. My current employment is at Red Hat so I spend a lot of
time packaging software.

I also spend time maintaining several apps on Flathub, and I'd like to
expand maintenance efforts to Fedora!

Earlier I filed a request for unorphaning a package:

https://pagure.io/releng/issue/11963

It would appear that there are several requirements I must fulfill,
especially finding a sponsor. If there's anyone who can help, then I'd
really appreciate it! I hope to be more involved with the Fedora community!

Thanks!

- Josh
