Hi,
I'm orphaning a couple of packages of mine which I no longer use or
were used as a dependency of a package I've maintained before and am no
longer using:
Packages without co-maintainers:
jolokia-jvm-agent
prometheus-simpleclient-java
prometheus-jmx-exporter

modularity.
Last but not least, if there's a CVE or soname bump in whatever library, we'd
need to rebuild the whole modularity stack depending. That would m

That just shows it is urgent for Fedora to improve its handling of

Any language ecosystem is initially hostile to distribution packages.

I have a question about this because I don't fully understand modularity.
If these packages are retired, how will maintainers get them installed from
their respective modules in order to build their own packages, and how will
users get the appropriate modules installed to satisfy dependencies? Or i

TL;DR I am planning to orphan Java packages listed below soon after
Fedora 29 GA. Let me know if you want to adopt any of them.
I'm in the process of transitioning maintenance of all software to
modules only. The reason is that module maintenance is much easier

I have orphaned some Java packages. These two were used to support
jnormaliz, which used to be part of the normaliz package. It is now a
separate project, and I don't use it, so I am not packaging it. If
somebody would like to do so, you will want to take up these two
