Hi Ludwig,
Can we find a sensible middle way please?
It would be nice if the webui would actually show the situation easily. It is not possible to look up package maintainers from requests view.
The fact the you can accept the request means you have the rights to do it. If that isn't desired by someone else (called pkg maintainer), then it's more of a communication issue. I don't think it's going to help if the (already crowded) request show view provides a "list of people with toes you would step on when accepting this". Project maintainers will refrain from ever again touching something. My take is, if a project maintainer did something the package maintainer didn't want, he'll usually find out at some point and write some (hate-)mail. Whatever the result of that is, someone will fixup the package and we can all float on. It's the "rather ask for forgiveness than for permission" scheme we all like. -- Sascha Peilicke SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
