Dne 20.8.2015 v 13:42 Michael Schwendt napsal(a):
Your script output does not tell anything at all about activity of
all
packagers in the package collection, in the normal review queue(s), in
pkgdb. No clues about number of orphaned/retired packages. No clues about
semi-dead packages where the packager is absent for a long time, and the
package only gets rebuilt during mass-rebuilds or receives random rebuilds
by other people.
This is completely different sets of problems.
How many new packagers manage to include a single package in the
collection,
but lose interest in maintainership afterwards? How many fellow packagers
lose interest in Fedora in general and switch to another distribution?
Again. Completely different sets of problems.
I am trying to focus on "How to find sponsor for new contributor in reasonable
time".
More interesting would be a discussion about which various fields of
interest
the current sponsors cover. Ruby? MinGW? OLPC XS? Mono? Fonts? Scientific/Maths
related school/research projects software? To mention a few fields only.
This is actually good idea.
