I am interested in comaintaining the package: yes
additional notes: We (KDE and LXQt SIGs) have requested a specific divvy of packages in releng#12809 due to the significance of his maintainership

The bugs are related to another KDE package, but this one is also relevant and since I want to maintain it, I decided to file the ticket.

This is a ticket for the Fedora's Policy for nonresponsive package maintainers.

I see zero packaging activity since early 2023 :(
Not sure why the "inactive packager" automation didn't handle this case already? I see no tickets opened for rdieter at https://pagure.io/find-inactive-packagers ...

Based on this, +1

+1 :(

He has not responded to me via LinkedIn. I don't use Facebook.

Metadata Update from @ngompa:
- Issue tagged with: pending announcement

This ticket did not follow the procedure. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/#steps

It is approved but the packages are only orphaned a week after you send a reminder to @rdieter.

I think we can count @churchyard ping as week 2 ping, so we can progress to the orphaning

I've opened the RelEng request: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/12875
