seeking sponsorship to be newpackager of aoetools

[Ken Dreyer]

I can sponsor you, assuming that you'll be following the "co-maintain
to get sponsored" process and Christopher will offer help with
aoetools if needed.

Christopher, are you ok with this?

That's OK, though, because now Christopher Meng is maintaining the package, and I would like to submit a fresh patch series that brings Fedora aoetools to the current upstream version, 36.
