Reopen Issue

I'm Sandipan, I wanted to become a maintainer of this orphan packages, like plantuml, python-metaextract.
I already created a PR, but the source is not updated because I don't have package maintainer permission.

PR:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-metaextract/pull-request/5
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/plantuml/pull-request/9

@churchyard
Thanks for helping every time when I'm having a problem building those 2 packages.
Now both packages are build successfully, and I'm looking forward to the next step to take the maintainership of those 2 packages.

Thanks.
