According to user reports, ozamosi (Robin Sonefors) has not responded to bugs since last August [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1131000 #1131000], while he does not seem to be on vacation. I personally filed a bug on the 28th of February, [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1197402 #1197402] and a little later in the discussion, I made it clear that I intended to invoke the non-responsive maintainer policy.
Following the policy, I sent him an e-mail and tried to find him on irc -without any luck- and a week later, I posted [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2015-March/209259.html a message on the devel mailing list], requesting contact info.
If he can't be contacted, I wouldn't mind taking over gdouros-symbola-fonts and any of the other [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packager/ozamosi/ font packages that he maintains], even though I am not in the packagers group yet.
Thanks for your report, ACKing the takeover. Please continue per the policy, looking for a sponsor and going through the package reviews.
I have contacted upstream in the past and got some insight about the gdouros fonts, so I decided to work on all the gdouros-*-fonts. Upstream has changed the distributed files, which means that I need to adjust the other packages besides Symbola. Also, gdouros-alexander is now included in a set of fonts and I might have to discuss whether to obsolete the single font package with the fonts SIG.
Anyway, I'll probably have the spec files for all the gdouros-* fonts ready by the weekend, I'll submit the updated packages for review and ask for sponsorship. I just hope no one takes over the packages in the meantime.
Oh, I forgot: Can I submit all the packages in a single review request?
Replying to [comment:3 alexpl]:
No, it's one review per package, sorry.
Do list them back here when ready and perhaps one of the fesco members can review/sponsor you. Thanks.
alexpl, I will sponsor you in packager group. First work on the updated packages. submit them for package review and once you done this, reply here with the links and I will review them also.

I really appreciate it, thank you very much. Given that you've worked on these fonts, I expect I won't give you too much trouble.
I had to do a surprising amount of reading for some of the files, but I think I got them right:
