To add history here, MBS was written by and maintained by a different
team until early this year, when it was handed off to the koji team. 

Last I heard they were still trying to get up to speed on the codebase,
etc. It's not easy to take a codebase someone else has written and
maintained and take it over. ;( 

I'm of course not speaking for them, and hopefully they will chime in
here with more info...

With my Council hat on, I'd like to see that team represented in the
Objective if their involvement is going to be critical to the success
of Modularity.

Unfortunately, MBS is maintained by a different team: the team that
maintains Koji. I am unsure about what they're planning to do, but I
hope they're going to do *something*.

Err, more than one month ago sorry. Apologies if that mischaracterised
the situation.

I opened this ticket more than two months ago. :-(

What's *worse* is that before I filed that infra ticket I filed this
ticket [1] at the MBS upstream project and that got *absolutely* no
response. Complete silence. In fact *no* ticket reported there haven't
seen any activity in months. Not exactly confidence inspiring for the
future of the project.

[1] https://pagure.io/fm-orchestrator/issue/1640

I've tried *so* hard to get on board with modularity but I think I'm
done with modules now in Fedora.

In the early days the people who maintained MBS were super helpful and
worked hard to fix the bugs I found in it, but now it feels like those
days are gone and still it's just hurdle after hurdle. All I want is
an easy life, and I thought modules were that, but it's impossible to
get anything done in a timely manner, builds have required so much
babysitting, the MBS requiring (already scarce) releng resources to
intervene periodically Honestly, it's been just exhausting and
demoralising how many man-hours have gone to waste. So I've pulled all
my packages back into mainline Fedora since that seems to be the path
of least resistance even though I will once again have to maintain
multiple branches of my whole stack of packages.

Interesting experiment, maybe, but if there's going to be no
commitment to pay the on-going cost of infra maintenance and fix the
design-flaws or whatever serious problem is currently holding back
MBS, then I have to end the experiment for my own sanity at least.

+1

This document seems to focus on "DNF" side of thing, while completely
missing the infrastructure side. E.g. MBS, dist-git, mass rebuilds, etc.

I hope that you find resources to properly maintain MBS. Currently (last two
weeks) it cannot build the modules
