Hello,

As part of the same process outlined in Matthias Clasen's "LibreOffice 
packages" email, my upstream and downstream work on desktop Bluetooth, multimedia 
applications (namely totem, rhythmbox and sound-juicer) and libfprint/fprintd is being 
stopped, and all the rest of my upstream and downstream work will be reassigned depending 
on Red Hat's own priorities, as I am transferred to another team.

While it's possible that some of the maintenance will stay with me in the new 
team, I've not yet been told which team I would be joining.

Here is a list of Fedora packages which I maintained or co-maintained which I 
won't be able to contribute to anymore:
apfs-fuse
bluez
codespell
eosrei-emojione-fonts
geocode-glib
gnome-bluetooth
gnome-epub-thumbnailer
gnome-kra-ora-thumbnailer
gnome-user-share
gom
grilo
grilo-plugins
ifuse
iio-sensor-proxy
libfprint
libglib-testing
libimobiledevice
libpeas
libplist
libportal
libusbmuxd
low-memory-monitor
malcontent
power-profiles-daemon
sloccount
switcheroo-control
totem
totem-pl-parser
umockdev
usbmuxd


I've picked up libimobiledevice as I need it for Fedora Asahi work.

Would like to take**golang-github-lithammer-dedent and aqemu but I 
believe I still need a sponsor. Anyone willing to sponsor?

What would be really helpful is to know how it compares with other Naskh fonts

I lack the tools/skills/knowledge/jargon to describe the differences I
see. Is there a guide for n00bs where they can read up on what sort of
things to compare and how to describe those differences?

Re: What is Fedora?

2023-06-26 Thread Jeffrey Stewart
I'm no lawyer here, and I've only worked with Linux for roughly 8 years 
now,  but I find  all of this GPL / redhat terms of agreement very 
confusing and seems at the face of it to be in conflict with each other. 
For example, Red Hat states:


  "If you use the Individual Developer Subscriptions for any other 
purposes or beyond the parameters described in these Program Terms, you 
are in violation of Red Hat’s Enterprise Agreement and are required to 
pay the Subscription fees that would apply to such use, in addition to 
any and all other remedies available to Red Hat under applicable law. 
Examples of such violations include, but are not limited to,
    ● using the Red Hat Subscription Services for Individual 
Development Use and/or Individual Production Use on more than sixteen 
(16) Physical or Virtual Nodes, or
    ● selling, distributing and/or rebranding the Red Hat Subscription 
Services (or any part thereof) contained in the Individual Developer 
Subscriptions. "


However, the GPL section 4 seems to make pretty clear on how I can 
"convey verbatim copies" , allowing me to essentially copy/modify the 
built binaries and take those to any machines as I see fit.


Although redhat provides a free Developer license and access to its 
source, all I could find with a Dev license was the iso image, either 
its very difficult to find, or does not exist and I don't believe access 
to an ISO complies with the GPL either, as the GPL guarantees access to 
the preferred form of work for the making of modifications to it.


Even if redhat did in fact provide access to a git repo of some kind 
walled off by a user account and buried behind mouse clicks, would I 
still be able to compile and build rhel from source and run that on more 
then 16 machines? Or will I be in violation with Rhels terms and in for 
a potential lawsuit?

have an account or know someone who has an account.  Or you can create 
a dev account with a throw away email to get the ISOs.  I'll happily 
download any ISO you want. :P
I know several people that their dev account is linked with their 
personal gmail account, but I havent created a new dev account in a 
while so IDK if they filter for domains.
Red Hat has even released instructions on how you can run your own 
mirror.  I believe you do need a RH login to access those 
instructions. https://access.redhat.com/solutions/23016


Example sources:
https://archive.org/details/rhel-baseos-9.1-x86_64-dvd_202212
http://calipso.linux.it.umich.edu/pulp/isos/UM/Library/content/dist/rhel8/8/x86_64/baseos/iso/

If you're concerned about getting an ISO from anywhere other than 
RedHat.com, then I'd suggest you sign up for a free account with a 
fresh email account that is only used for your RH account.


At the end of the day, the source will always be available in 
some form, Red Hat cannot violate the GPL without opening itself up to 
massive lawsuits.

Re: Non-responsive maintainer check for deji - grads

2022-11-07 Thread Jeffrey Stewart
Hello, I am interesting in maintaining this package(grads) if no one 
else will, but I require sponsorship since I am still new to this group.

Non-responsive maintainer check for deji

Mainly for grads:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2140875

But there is also an old bug for TexMaker:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2088781

Has anyone else heard from Deji?

Is anyone else interested in taking over grads or TexMaker should it
come to that?

Thanks,
