Hi again :) I don't see you in packager group in FAS (which is a
requirement for lxqt-sig access to LXQt packages). So you need to be
sponsored as a packager first to be able to build and maintain official
Fedora packages, check
But a first step would be playing with LXQt and the new version in a
personal copr to get familiar with it. Very useful resource is the build
order provided by upstream:
Yes i am already a packager,i can do this then

Hi,
are you already a packager? The work is mostly updating packages,
besides that one important part is the theming of LXQt (usage of
Fedora wallpaper etc.) and finally maintaining the live spin.
Packaging is the most important topic.
Greetings,
Christian
