Hey folks.
Right now the package owner for xen in fedora is the xen-maint alias account. Originally this was an alias that was mapped to various @redhat folks who were doing xen development, and was used for both fedora and internal RHEL stuff.
Nowadays it's not really used in upstream/fedora land and fedora-virt-maint is a better suited alias. Additionally @redhat isn't doing much xen work these days so we should just have a single package owner which reflects reality.
So I propose we drop xen-maint as the package owner, and Michael can 'officially' take on package ownership. If that sounds fine I'll file a ticket with fedora infrastructure to make the change (required AFAIK for alias account changes).
Michael, does that sound good to you?
Thanks, Cole

That sounds sensible to me

+1. I thought Michael was already the (un?)official xen maintainer in Fedora! ;-)
