Closed: Keep packager status
Reopen Issue

Hello @otaylor,

during our periodic check as per the "Inactive packagers policy"
we detected no activity from you as a packager, nor in
other Fedora community places, like Bodhi or mailing lists.

In order to reduce security risks from possible accounts hijacking
we're trying to contact you to know if you're still reachable and
if your email set in Fedora Account System (ota****@redhat.com) is still valid.

Please, let us know if you're still intersted in participating
in Fedora and if you still need your account to be listed in the packager group.

Without any reply from you, in two months the packager group membership will be
removed from your account and any package for which you are the main admin will
be orphaned, so that co-maintainers can pick them up.

The following is a list of packages that may become orphan if the user
@otaylor is removed from the packager group. Affected co-maintainers users and groups are
provided as well:

  • eog[flatpaks] (affected groups: @flatpak-sig)
  • fedora-flathub-remote
  • fedora-third-party
  • flatpak-build-base[container] (affected users: @kalev)
  • flatpak-common[modules] (affected users: @kalev, @tpopela)
  • flatpak-module-tools (affected users: @kalev, @yselkowitz)
  • flatpak-rpm-macros (affected users: @amigadave, @yselkowitz, @tpopela)
  • flatpak-runtime-config (affected users: @amigadave, @kalev, @yselkowitz, @tpopela)
  • flatpak-runtime[flatpaks] (affected users: @kalev, @yselkowitz, @tpopela) (affected groups: @flatpak-sig)
  • flatpak-sdk[flatpaks] (affected users: @kalev, @yselkowitz, @tpopela) (affected groups: @flatpak-sig)
  • flatpak-xdg-utils (affected groups: @gnome-sig)
  • gjs (affected users: @walters, @frantisekz) (affected groups: @gnome-sig)
  • gnome-battery-bench
  • koji-flatpak
  • quadrapassel[flatpaks] (affected groups: @flatpak-sig)

Note that this is just an early warning for package co-maintainers/collaborators: the maintainer
can still show up before the orphaning happen.
Anyone who wants to become the maintainer of a package before it is orphaned can try to contact
the current maintainer themselves or, if you really can't wait after the automatic orphaning,
open a ticket to Fedora Releng.

I'm still reachable, email is accurate. I am not actively involved in Fedora maintainership right now, so I'll look into transfering any packages that I'm the only owner of. At least until that happens, I'd like to stay a member of the packagers group.

Needs new maintainership (will work to transfer to Luigi Pavan)

koji-flatpak
fedora-flathub-remote
