Hi,
I just wonder if the `<package>-owner@fedoraproject.org` email alias is documented somewhere. And are there other email aliases? E.g. can I reach the EPEL maintainer of a package? Maybe this page [1] could be used to document this.

Yeah, I don't know of anywhere it is.
That said, '<package>-owner' is the old version and we should probibly retire it soon. The new/preferred one is '<package>-maintainers'
Theres not a seperate one for epel, but it might be possible to make one looking at bugzilla overrides.

Never heard about -maintainers. So do I understand correctly that this alias is already in place?

Just to give you a bit of context, this alias would be useful when introducing new package into RHEL, where the package is already present in EPEL and therefore have to be removed. So it would help with a way to contact the relevant people without the need of gathering their emails.

Yep. It is.

Yeah, +1. This would be a great use for that alias.

Should I open a ticket? Is this realistic any time soon?

For documenting the aliases? Well, you can edit the wiki... or did you want a better place for it, like in docs?
Or did you mean getting RHEL maintainers to mail it when introducing new packages to RHEL? Thats beyond our scope here, and would have to be some internal process.

Sorry for getting lost you here. I was still talking about the EPEL email alias. So is the EPEL email alias thing which could be implemented soon so is it worth of opening ticket?
