Intention to take ownership of and revive from retirement - ortp

[Philip Wyett]

Hi all,

Once upon a time...

One day a fedora packager found libosip2 orphaned and decided it needed some love and
adopted it.
Little did he know the rabbit hole he was about to go down. ;-)

All things lead to linphone and as a result I have adopted:

- libosip2
- libeXosip2
- linphone

An integral dependency is the retired ortp. I would like to take ownership of the
package,
following the process[1].

The overall process as I see it maybe quite a brutal one, with:

- Major version updates
- soname bumps
- etc.

Hopefully when work is complete, we will have a working linphone stack. Please be patient
as
efforts progress.

Thanks for picking this up!


When I saw that linphone was orphaned, I wanted to adopt it too,
but when I saw how much work it needed and being a new packager,
I didn't trust myself to be able to do all the work alone.

Let me know if I can help with something :D
