Members of this group would be responsible for shepherding packages
designated by the various SIG efforts in CentOS through the process of
getting these packages in epel. This means that rather than having an
individual owner, packages would have group ownership. Members of this
group will be required to have access to make package modifications on
the CentOS side so that they meet the packaging standards for EPEL.
Additionally, it would help to have an EPEL proven packager as part of
the group as well in order to help make things move a little quicker.
Would this be acceptable from an EPEL standpoint? What would be required
from an EPEL perspective to make this happen?
Can you please be more detailed about who should get which privileges
and how? E.g. do you want to become the new members packagers without
being properly sponsored?
Also do you plan to not use Fedora's git repository to build packages
from?
Technically, support is already possible by just becoming packagers,
since there is also group ownership in the package database.
