Non responsive packager: amitshah

[Pierre-Yves Chibon]

Good Morning Everyone,

I have been trying to contact packagers without a proper bugzilla account
associated with their FAS email for a while now. The first email to devel-announce
is from June 13th [1].

This is a requirement for packagers which is mentioned at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers#Cr...

Since then a number of packagers have fixed their situation but that user did not.

Currently I see:
amitshah is maintaining rpms/pius
amitshah is maintaining rpms/qemu


I am hereby starting the non-responsive procedure for that user.

Does someone know how to contact them?

Failing to contact them, I will be asking FESCo to orphan the packages.


Thanks in advance for your help,

Pierre

Amit used to work for Red Hat, and his email used to be Amit Shah
<amit.shah(a)redhat.com&gt;.
I believe he no longer works for Red Hat. I guess things went side ways when he left RH.

Note orphaning qemu is not the best of ideas, or do we have a take
button for easy taking over orphaned packages now (as we used to
have some time ago). If not it might be a good idea to first re-add
a take button ...

Regards,

Hans

The email set in FAS for that account is current not a @redhat.com one.

There is a button to easily take orphaned button, cf
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mozilla-iot-gateway which was recently
orphaned.

Great, thank you for re-adding that feature.

I hope you are taking into account co-maintainers here, as there is
absolutely no reason to ask for 'qemu' to be orphaned when there are
nine other co-maintainers.

I've removed Amit from the qemu package since he's not made any changes
there in circa 10 years AFAICS.

Daniel

I now realized the wording is confusing/incorrect. I guess a better wording
should have been:
  Failing to contact them, I'll be asking FESCo to remove the account from the
  package (potentially orphaning it if the account is the main maintainer)

Does this make more sense?

As far as I know, From src.fp.o/rpms/qemu . It's currently being
maintained by `berrange` and the `@virtmaint-sig`
