libglfw orphaned, but it has dependancies still in fedora ? (fwd)

I was asked to look into this. libglfw is retired, but has dependancies
that need it. It was added to Fedora on Nov 16, and retured by notting
on July 25th, but it does not say why.

Can this package be revived? If needed, I'll take it on. This is
apparently the next generation glut, and used by people, and other
fedora packages as the logs below here show,

Thanks,

Paul
