But for some packages we have more than one people willing +to work on that package. Besides, for some critical package it may be +useful having more than one person responsible for it. +Also someone might be interested in helping on package foo, but feels +too much inexperienced to take full reponsability for it. Peer review is +important. + +The idea is not associating a package with a single maintainer, but +associate each package to a maintainer-group, say +<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">NAME at packages.mageia.org</A>, and let maintainers subscribe to package +maintenance. + +this would result that in case a ticket is opened in bugzilla vs +package, all interested parties would be notified, and start working on +a solution. (this might require a bit of coordination, but maybe just +assigning the bug to a real person is enough to note someone is taking +care of the problem) + +In this case a package will become unmaintained if no-one is subscribed +to the group. + +we could even use refint_nothing in ldap to redirect +<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">NAME at packages.mageia.org</A> to <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">unmaintained at packages.mageia.org</A> when noone +is subscribed to a package. + +Regards, +L. + +-- +Luca Berra -- <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">bluca at vodka.it</A> +</PRE> + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="001347.html">[Mageia-dev] Suggestion-Locales management for One (or Live) Cd releases +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="001357.html">[Mageia-dev] maintainer groups +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#1356">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#1356">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#1356">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#1356">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
