Thomas Janssen
= Qualifications =
I was the owner/maintainer of ~70 packages and co-maintainer of about also 70 packages for quite some time. Co-maintainer of KDE SIG packages, maintainer of e.g. the EFL chain.
= Rationale =
I would like to still be able to help as much as i can in my spare time, helping to update KDE packages. Applying upstream patches to reduce the work for Rex Dieter and other KDE SIG members.
I would of course help other maintainers as well, as far as i can.
I know this rationale isn't the best in your eyes. It would take some burden of me and makes me still valuable that way.
Thanks for reading/listening.
+1 from me. thomasj is active member of KDE community.

Adding meeting keyword to discuss at tomorrow's meeting.
I will close that ticket. I don't want to go trough all that again why i orphaned my packages and get it discussed in a public meeting. I thought it might be a good idea to continue with what i like. I was naive. After getting pestered again from the same person in IRC, that i could co-maintain the packages again rather than become a provenpackager, i knew, this would happen.
I can't currently fight out anything (tbh, i don't even want to fight for anything, if you have to fight, something is wrong). I'm simply burned out. Probably there will come someone along who is good enough for his majesty (everything has to be as he wants). I'm not the one. And no, this isn't some drama, this is just a 'i give up', 'i am done'. I need a timeout from Fedora. Don't delete my account yet, i might come back one day.
I do appreciate everything i learned from real intelligent, brilliant and extraordinary good persons. It was an honour to work together with them, helping users out there to get the best Linux experience they can expect from Fedora.
I'm sorry for the times i might have caused trouble.
Thanks.
