My gut reaction to this is, my god, we don't need *more* packages in Fedora,
we need more people maintaining the pile we already have. So I'd like to see
more packagers added as co-maintainers of packages.
I agree on the part that we should encourage comaintainership.
But I'm still skeptical on the comaintainership process which is much
less transparent than the classic one.
I prefer limiting this to upstream maintainers (which I assume care
about tending to their packages) or someone
that will be closely supervised by an experienced packager.
