Hi all, I noticed that Fedocal was on the upcoming orphaned packages list on a recent email to the devel-announce mailing list. I was curious if this would have an impact on Fedocal in Fedora Infra currently since I hadn't heard anything about it prior.
I wasn't sure what this meant for Fedocal, so I was hoping to get some clarification if it's relevant for end-users or not.
Thanks!

It means fedocal will not longer be available in the Fedora repository. However, in our infrastructure it is deployed from our infra repo, and we aim at moving towards an openshift-based deployment likely using s2i, so without the need to package it as RPM at all.
Hoping this helps, Pierre
