This is kind of horrifying, but also I wonder if these people look like they're inactive because they're over-relying on Packit to do their work. For example, linux-system-roles got auto-orphaned once because the packager set up fire-and-forget Packit configuration years ago and they proceeded to do nothing else in Fedora. It wouldn't surprise me if some Packit adoption is responsible for a large chunk of this. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
