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.

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.

Sure. No worries. I think there's the one bug that requires immediate attention, since it hasn't been built for F28 too:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1556280
I've let Miro know that we'll fix it soon.

Sure. I've already given the robotics sig ownership of my packages and I've also applied to the robotics sig so that I can help out when I have the cycles. For instance, I could look into the python-vcstools build if I have access to it (python-wstools depends on it too).
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.
Yes. This makes sense to me too. I'll get in touch with the other science related SIGs and see if we can follow this method too. It's on my TODO list now.
