Where is the openjpeg maintainer?

[Adam Goode]

One of my packages has a dependency on openjpeg, and I want to put it
into EL-5. I am trying to get this done, and I am happy to co-maintain
openjpeg.

There are open requests for co-maintainers in the database:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492218

This is the last known contact on this issue:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/openjpeg

In the bug report, the maintainer seems to suggest that having
co-maintainers are ok: "feel free to merge it", but never approves them.
Can someone approve these co-maintainers?



Thanks,

Adam

I will probably help to also mention the name and FAS username of the
openjpeg maintainer, which are Callum Lerwick and seg. I also CC'ed him
to this mail, so maybe this helps to get his attention.

I know that Callum has in the past had periods where he is very busy.
Given that he's asked for assistance before, and that no reasonable
maintainer wouldn't want help from experienced packagers when busy, I
went ahead and approved agoode and rdieter's requests for watchbugzilla,
watchcommits and commit privileges on the openjpeg package.  I did not
approve oliver's requests as he only requested commit access without
asking for watchbugzilla or watchcommits, which I don't think it a
terribly good idea.  I also did not approve the requests for
approveacls, just in case Callum still wishes to maintain control over
that.

Also, note the EPEL is orthogonal to this; if the maintainer doesn't
respond one way or another to a request to branch for EPEL, the policy
says that you can just branch for EPEL without them.

Yes, my internet access and time has become limited, and I'm really
too ADHD for boring old long term maintenance anyway, so all my
packages should probably just be orphaned at this point.

I've actually been in something of a, err, one-third life crisis and
am considering uprooting myself, getting the hell out of the midwest
and moving to the bay area or something...
