On the other hand ... if you don't have the time to properly maintain
a package, maybe you shouldn't push it to the official Fedora
repositories at all?
This only results in the worst outcome: Frustration for the packager
(don't have time to properly update) *and* users (package in Fedora is
out of date).
Pushing things in a
not-entirely-packaging-guidelines-compliant-but-maintainable-with-limited-time
form to COPR would be a way better solution here from the start.
