To get a 'move', that information should first show up in the "repository meta data" before it can be be deleted from "Groups:". TBH I didn't follow the discussions from a certain point, but neither the referenced proposal nor the board decision does enlighten me enough to see what the actual plan is: Technically we can generate additional information into the repo metadata. A package is part of a development repo, and gets SR'ed to Factory, or other projects. So where is that information supposed to be originally stored? In the meta data of the package? And then propagated to the projects that package is forwarded to? How? While I respect the decision of the board (and find it good that a decision was finally made), I'm still confused what it means in detail.
From Richard's demanding I see only the second half of the actions, i.e., that the information should disappear from the RPM Group tag (or maybe not - depending on the maintainer). Yet - the first action, i.e., where to go with the information, is not clear to me. What are the next actions following the decision wrt/ the 1st part? Would someone please explain?
