Hi @ankursinha, I would also be interested in co-maintaining. This ties in with some other packaging work I had done in the past with beancount. ledger was a dependency, but it was out-of-date in Fedora and this held up my ability to go deeper on it, at the time.

Per https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/#steps:

If there are no objections, in three days, @ankursinha and @jflory7 should be given admin privs on ledger. After another week, we'll ping sham1 again, and if there's still no response, we can make one of you the main admin and orphan the rest of the packages listed above.

After three days (per the non-responsive maintainer process's special voting rules): APPROVED (+5, 0, -0)

  • @ankursinha and @jflory7 should now be added as additional admins to ledger.
  • After another week (after 2026-07-14), we should make @ankursinha the main admin and orphan the rest of the packages if there's no response from @sham1.

^ is all based on https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_nonresponsive_package_maintainers/#steps, so this is not a separate proposal that needs to be voted on.

Oh hello, sorry about being non-responsive. I noticed that @ankursinha as a comaintainer in ledger, and that's wonderful. Hopefully we can get more stuff with this.

I've unfortunately been a bit busy with real life stuff, but hopefully I can do more now.

@sham1, welcome back :). I guess we can close this ticket now. I'd suggest going through the list of your packages in #3631 (comment) and seeing if it makes sense to orphan any of them so you can reduce your maintenance load.

I'll second what @gotmax23 wrote: @sham1 please add comtaintainers or orphan packages. But either way, ledger situation has been addressed and we don't need to do anything here.
