Does "add" mean "package" here? Or are they to be added to some other package? Are the review requests / pull requests to be reviewed somewhere? > ** add SWID metadata awareness to createrepo (but this will not be Do you mean createrepo_c? createrepo is going away. > used in Fedora, only enabled for user use), agreeing metadata format > with dnf team F30 beta is in exactly 2 weeks. I doubt "agreeing" and implementation can happen in this timeframe. It should be OK to put in parts of the implementation, even if things are not complete for this release. But for "advertising purposes", maybe it's better to bump it to F31, so that we don't advertise something that is not fully implemented? > ** add dnf and libdnf plugins (no core dnf/libdnf changes expected) A bit more detail here would be useful.
