Hi Ankur,
I saw those bug reports pop up too. I'm going to try to get to them soon, but I've been a bit short on time lately with moving to a new job/city. The bug reports say they need to be fixed before f30, so I think we have some time.
If you've got packages you don't want to maintain, you can assign them to me or to the @robotics-sig group. I can try to keep up with them if you want to focus on other things.
I'd have no problems collaborating with a larger sci-tech group of maintainers if they're open to it. I think that's how Debian handles robotics packages - under a larger Science umbrella.

Hi!
There are one or two packages that need building for rawhide or they risk being orphaned. Could we please look into them? I'm not a maintainer for python-vcstools[1], so I can't fix it, for example.
I'm co-maintainer on a few robotics packages but I'm not doing any robotics research any more---I've moved to neuroscience---trying to get NeuroFedora[2] to take off as a Fedora Lab.
Would it be OK if I orphaned the robotics packages? I can hold on to them if there aren't any other active maintainers, of course.
On a more general note, I was wondering if it made sense for all the research related SIGs to share maintenance of common packages under the Sci-tech SIG[3]. I haven't spoken to the ML or Astro people yet about this, though.
