As far as i understand, extras is open for non-rh devs to maintain - and
if (example) AbiWord was maintained by somebody who used AbiWord
reguraly, and maybe even was an AbiWord developer - wouldn't that
possibly give a better AbiWord than somebody who never used it exept
fiering it up to check that "yum, it still starts" after recompiling,
but never sees any bugs etc. ?
Yes indeed. But this is the whole point of involving the community and
RH engaging the community. Wouldn't it be great *every* package in FC
Core also had this kind of love?
What needs to happen so this occurs?
Cheers!
