Is there such a strong sentiment for recode? Really?
I couldn't care less about recode in particular, but I am sensitive to heavy worded statements from openSUSE Board members. -- Stefan Seyfried
What, precisely, is heavily worded about Gertjan's comment? openSUSE does not distribute unmaintained packages. As Dominique has clarified, "unmaintained" includes packages without a declared or inherited maintainer, as well as packages that do have a declared/inherited maintainer but those maintainers do not respond to incidents in a timely manner. My experience over the last 48 hours where a significant amount of my work has been blocked by the latter, suggests your hunt for packages without maintainers is misguided. I think your enthusiasm for this topic would be better spent motivating those maintainers who are not responsive to serious problems with their packages, or finding additional maintainers to help them, rather than wasting a lot of this list readers time passive-aggressively criticising a Board member who effectively managed to communicate the above facts of the matter rather succinctly. - Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
