what is a "maintained" package? no maintainer, no commits since x
months, not buildable? what if we move to packages being maintained by
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">foopkg at packages.mageia.org</A> aliases?
what are the rules to move a package from extra to core, and vice-versa?
who can do it? will it be done automatically? will this imply a rebuild
for the package?
what are the dependency rules? can a core package depend on an extra
package? or with a buildrequires?
and, more importantly: what is the advantage? that is, what does that
bring you, except more admin?
sorry, consider me not impressed by this idea. or maybe it's just that i
failed to see the benefits. please enlighten me.
