Reopen Issue

This is an outgrowth 'next question' from discussion on: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1799

I don't see that a given seeming ProvenPackager mentioned in a mailing list thread on -devel was ever publicly considered for such rights nor granted such by FESCo, according to the documented procedure to become a PP

see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Provenpackager_policy

To become a member of the 'provenpackager' group, the procedure is the following:
File a ticket in the FESCo issue tracker indicating why you wish to become a provenpackager.

I have heard, but do not see documented, that certain users in select email domains 'automatically' are PP's ... If indeed this is true, this also needs to be documented

Requests:

  1. add a searchable tag, and tag all prior requests to become a proven packager ; document such

  2. document the rubrics for any special right grants (speculation: the PP committer uses an @example.com email address)

I have heard, but do not see documented, that certain users in select email domains 'automatically' are PP's ... If indeed this is true, this also needs to be documented

This is flat-out incorrect. There is no automatic provenpackager.

As for adding the searchable tag, it's probably not needed. I think https://pagure.io/fesco/issues?status=all&search_pattern=proven should cover it.
