Hi,
I'm a bit worried about the fact that poppler bugs and security issues get assigned to me. And, hrm, as far as I can tell, I'm not even marked as maintainer of the package in the build service ;-) (it's Stephan Binner)
In fact it is Dirk Mueller:
osc maintainer openSUSE:Factory poppler Following to the development space: X11:common:Factory / poppler No dedicated persons in package defined, showing the project persons !
bugowner : dirkmueller
However, Dirk is of course also over loaded, so the rest of the mail stays true ;) ...
This is probably because, before the opening of factory development, the GNOME team was marked as maintainer of poppler, which is, I think, purely historical (it was probably first needed by evince). This could also be because I'm the one who updated the package lately, but I was probably just the fastest to do it...
It's quite some work for me since I don't know poppler that well and there might be other people who know the code better than I do (or as well as I do). I certainly don't want to leave poppler unmaintained, and so the situation won't get worse, but having help from other people would be quite great :-)
So, is there anybody else interested in becoming co-maintainer of poppler?
Thanks,
Vincent
