Closed: Keep packager status
Reopen Issue

Hello @jrowens,

during our periodic check as per the "Inactive packagers policy"
we detected no activity from you as a packager, nor in
other Fedora community places, like Bodhi or mailing lists.

In order to reduce security risks from possible accounts hijacking
we're trying to contact you to know if you're still reachable and
if your email set in Fedora Account System (jrowens.fedora@ghiapet.net) is still valid.

Please, let us know if you're still intersted in participating
in Fedora and if you still need your account to be listed in the packager group.

Without any reply from you, in two months we will proceed to remove
your account from the packager group. Your account will still be active.

Yes, still here. I should still retire that gogoc package. I'll ask how that's done on IRC sometime. Last time I looked, there wasn't a clear set of instructions for retirement yet, without going through everything else first.

@jrowens the package retirement process documentation is at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Retirement_Process/

However, I suggest orphaning it instead. This will offer other packagers the opportunity to take over maintainership. If no one claims it after six weeks, it will be retired anyway.

Metadata Update from @bcotton:
- Issue close_status updated to: Keep packager status
- Issue status updated to: Closed (was: Open)

Just FYI, definitely retire rather than orphan. gogoc is a client for connecting to a particular set of IPv6 tunnel servers, and those servers have been out of service for a few years now. It might be possible to change it to work with other servers, but at that point, it wouldn't really be gogoc, and there are much better options out there than trying to make this work with anything extant.
