by Orion Poplawski
I'm building grib_api 1.14.0 for F24/F23 now. Includes soname bump so I'll be
rebuilding dependent packages.

evolution-data-server soname version bump in F23 and rawhide the next week
by Milan Crha
Hi,
the 3.17.4 release of evolution-data-server changes soname versions for
camel, libecal and libedata-cal, due to some API changes in respective
parts.
I will rebuild packages for which I have commit rights, the same as I
can help with the API change fixes, thus feel free to ping me or drop
an e-mail.
Bye,
Milan

Sponsor shortage
by Jonathan Underwood
Hi,
Today I happened to look at this page:
http://fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus/NEEDSPONSOR.html
from which I can see we have potentially on the order of 100 new
potential contributors to Fedora whose efforts we're missing out on
due to a lack of sponsors. Some people seem to have been waiting to be
sponsored for a couple of years. This is quite an unfortunate
situation - what can we do to improve that situation? How many
*active* packaging sponsors do we currently have?
Cheers,
Jonathan.

python 3.5 in Fedora?
by Richard W.M. Jones
I just got a bug filed against my package not working with Python 3.5
... in *Ubuntu*?! That sort of thing never happens since normally
Fedora is usually so far ahead of Ubuntu.
I notice that Fedora Rawhide is carrying Python 3.4.3, but Python
3.5.0b1 was released a couple of months ago. Is Fedora going to
upgrade?
Rich.

Fedora 23 Mass Branching
by Dennis Gilmore
Hi All,
Fedora 23 has been branched, please be sure to do a git pull --rebase to
pick up the new branch, as an additional reminder rawhide/f24 has had
inheritance cut off from previous releases, so this means that
anything you do for f23 you also have to do in the master branch and do
a build there. This is the same as we did for previous Fedora releases.
Dennis

Is %autosetup another unwanted baby of Fedora?
by Marcin Juszkiewicz
Hi
When I moved to Fedora after years of doing Debian packages I noticed
that there is no such thing as patch management when it comes to Fedora
packages. Everyone is using %patch macro with files of random patchlevel
(some even use reverse patches).
%autosetup was created to handle that but probably less than 5% of
packages use it. Why?
Is it because no one told that it exists? Or maybe because
implementation has some issues which no one wants to fix? Or other (I
exclude laziness of package maintainers)?
