Welcome back.  I think it is best if we follow the co-maintainership path

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group#Become_a_comaintainer

Here is how it works:

*  I will file a request with FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering
Committee) to get you sponsored if you agree to accept me as a mentor
*  I will add you as a co-maintainer to one of the packages I maintain
in Fedora (in this case,  deja-dup,  a backup software that is default
for Fedora)
*  You can prep the update for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=713402.   Feel free to ask
any questions or offlist or IRC (my nick is mether in #fedora-india) as
necessary
*  I will review the changes and you can commit them
*  Once you learn enough to be comfortable with the process,  you can go
ahead and file review requests for anything else you would like to
maintain and I will be happy to suggest more

Let me know what you think

Rahul
