You beat me to suggesting the same thing. :) I think we're at the point that almost every process that gates on a Red Hat team needs to be evaluated and potentially removed. Most of them are mired in similar problems. There hasn't been a "Fedora Crypto Team" in a very long time, probably not since the last attempt at unified crypto over a decade ago. The Security Team was also defunct, but is slowly being restarted with community leadership instead of Red Hat participants. This is a systemic problem. :( -- 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
