I'm already facing a thanks for your work but no thanks[1]. I apologize if that's how it sounded. That wasn't my intended meaning. The issue was that you just started dropping your updated specs into the bug report without any comment and seemingly prior to understanding the scope of the exception that was granted. In addition, your last update to the bug was on 2010-11-21. As far as I could tell, you had abandoned this review request. I respectfully request Uncle Shadowman *not* be forcefully made the owner of the package, and the reporter of the review request be granted ownership. As we've discussed elsewhere, I see no reason why we can't share ownership of the package. We've both contributed quite a bit to making the package acceptable for Fedora, and there's plenty of room for both of us to continue maintaining it.
