Hello all,<br>
I would like to submit a change proposal for the unresponsive
package maintainer policy.<br>
The policy now says [1] "<i>File a bug against the package in
Bugzilla asking for the maintainer to respond. This bug should
list the outstanding issues they need to address. This is a must.</i>"<br>
<br>
I think this kind of bug should not be filled against the single
package, but something like against infrastructure. Also it should
block all bugs assigned to that user.<br>
<br>
This can be useful if a user maintains several packages. This way
all bugs receive a notification that the "unresponsive package
maintainer" policy was started for that maintainer.<br>
<br>
For an example, I've just opened such a bug [2] for boinc-client
maintainer that owns several other packages with open bugs and no
activity since May.<br>
<br>
What do you think about my proposal?<br>
Mattia<br>
