+<PRE>Le vendredi 16 septembre 2011 &#224; 12:44 +0200, Guillaume Rousse a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> Le 16/09/2011 11:47, Sander Lepik a &#233;crit :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 15.09.2011 21:43, Maarten Vanraes kirjutas:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I have a script ready to set the last comittor (that's a full
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; packager) as
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; maintainer. perhaps it can be activated before the GREAT PURGE.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; That's not so good idea. What we maybe can do is that we send out a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; warning that if you commit to a package after the warning and the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; package has no maintainer yet then you become one. So that people would
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; first check what they get on their name. Many packages were imported by
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Anne, i'm not sure that she's going to maintain them all. :)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I would do something like that:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 2 months of warning period, if you touch package that has no maintainer
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; you become its maintainer. After 2 months we start dropping those
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; packages that have still no maintainer.
+</I>&gt;<i> This whole idea of 'touch a package, become its maintainer' assumes than
+</I>&gt;<i> anyone modifying a package has an obvious interest in it.
+</I>
+Then we can increase the heuristic, like &quot;upgrade to a new version&quot;, or
+&quot;do several commit on it&quot;. Someone upgrading a package either :
+- is interested in it for the package ( and thus would be a maintainer )
+- is interested into having it upgraded for using on another package
+( and thus, as a user of the rpm for another rpm, has a interest to not
+make it disappear ).
+
+And i doubt that someone would do X commit on a rpm if not interested in
+it.
