Reopen Issue

I would like to add Arjun as comaintainer for glibc so he can checkin addition test cases into Fedora Rawhide etc.

Arjun Shankar is the QE lead for glibc within Red Hat. Arjun is helping out with upstream glibc work regarding testing, testing changes, and test skeleton updates. He is also pushing test cases from Red Hat upstream to glibc and Fedora. All of this is great technical work.

I am fully willing to sponsor Arjun, but I'm not a sponsor myself, just the lead glibc maintainer. I feel that I'm a competent Fedora developer, but can't possibly maintain more than glibc, so can't meet the normal requirements to become a sponsor myself.

What is the next step?
(a) Find a proxy sponsor willing to help? I'll do the real mentoring.
(b) Add Arjun Shankar (submachine) to the packagers group.
(c) I then add Arjun as comaintainer for glibc.
(d) We make glibc testing better and better.

Cheers,
Carlos.

I've done a and b above. ;)

They should be able to login to pkgdb and request access to glibc now (c), and hopefully (d) is just around the corner. ;)
