I am still interested in becoming a packager and am still in need of a sponsor. I have submitted a new package for review that is both much more simple and has a straightforward license :) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1100961
Additionally, I have performed a few informal reviews in the hopes of demonstrating my interest / possession of a glimmer of competence:
Hey Jeff!
Welcome to the Fedora Package Maintainers! I just approved your filed review-request [1]. As you already have done some real good informal reviews as mentioned here, we could skip this and I've just sponsored you into the packager-group. The changes should be avail within the next hour. You can now procceed with the SCM-admin-request as explained here [2]. Please add me (besser82) on the InitialCC.
As a new packager, tt is always a good thing to do some review on packages which are waiting for one [3]. Doing frequent package-reviews drastically increases the opportunities for having someone review your own package-review submissions. Another option is to negotiate `review-swaps` over this list, like offering some packages for review here and waiting for others to turn in their waiting packages in reply.
Use your new powers for good!
Cheers, Björn
