I am Qiyu Yan, mail: yanqiyu01(a)gmail.com, a 5-yesr Fedora user and a

I started doing packaging because I want to setup development environment
for my
lab's computers, the software I first packaged is geant4 on copr
http://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/yanqiyu/geant4/
By improving the package forked from someone else, I started to know how
to do
packaging. (geant4 is a complexed software, I need more time to
package it well)
But I am not trying to join devel to bring geant4 to official repository
here:
I want to make an open-source anti-censorship proxy software [Trojan](
https://github.com/trojan-gfw/trojan) [GPL-3.0 license] available to
Fedora's official repositories. Will that be possible? (Its named as
trojan but it is a proxy, which pretends to be a TLS server which makes it
possible to bypass China, or any other government's censorship)
Fedora's official repositories already have a python3-shadowsocks with
similar
functions, but that project is likely to be out of maintenance. I
think having a new one will be great.
I have made it to be able to build on [koji](
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=45580956) what to do
next to carry on?
And I want to add more proxy software, such as [V2ray](
https://github.com/v2ray/v2ray-core) and [Shadowsocks-libev](
https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks-libev) later.
Why I want to build those proxies into fedora's official repository? That
is
because downloading those software from GitHub or COPR will be extremely
slow, but if them can enter official repository, they will be mirrored into
China, which will make it easier to install for Chinese users.
And they are not a Chinese only software, they are also useful when you
don't
want someone else to know if you are using a proxy, wireguard or
IPSec just do encryption but not confuse possible attackers.
