Are there any other review requests which can return sponsorship ?
I assume Sérgio posted that link as an example of how a request for
review swaps would look like, and not as a concrete bug for you to
look at. To summarize: Asking for a review swap is usually done as a
post to this very "devel" mailing list, and it includes the package
name, bugzilla link, and which kinds of packages you can review in
return.
Googling "fedora review swap sponsor" shows nothing
interesting 8-(
Probably because "review swap" and "sponsorship" are two entirely
different and only slightly related things, but both of them need to
happen, before you can submit this package to fedora.
In short:
- Since this is your first package, you as a *packager* have to be
sponsored by a "proven packager". This usually involves doing some
non-binding, informal reviews of pending packages to show that you
understand the Packaging Guidelines and process.
- Every submitted package (not only your first one) has to be reviewed
by someone who already is a packager for fedora. This is to ensure
package correctness and quality, and legal conformity (licensing
appropriate, no patents involved). This can be done via "review
swaps", where two packagers review each other's package submissions to
speed up the process.
So, it's not your wdune package that needs to be sponsored, but you as
a packager.
Also - according to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1658153 - there have been
some comments on your package review, but it's still unassigned and
has not been formally approved. You'll need somebody to step as
"official" reviewer and to set the "fedora-review" flag
appropriately.
I hope this clears things up for you.
