Cristian,

Good to hear that you're back!  I rebuilt grass/gdal stack on rawhide
in your absence.

If you've been away for a while, you may not be aware that now all
package maintainer requests are now done via PackageDB:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UsingPackagedb
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/

If you have your old FAS password for cbalint, you could login and
orphan the package yourself, then relogin with your new one and
reclaim them.  If you can't login with your old FAS password, you'll
have to get an admin to orphan them manually, then you can reclaim
then again with your new FAS password.

Excellent, also if you could keep ACLs on your packages open (done
recently by spot) (i.e. allow commits from other Fedora maintainers by
keeping the "cvsextras" checkbox checked) that would be of great help.

BC> Thanks to Lubo to get this mail in my attention.
