This is a ticket for the Fedora's Policy for nonresponsive package maintainers.
I have not been maintaining this for quite some time. wgomerin or darcari [at] redhat can help us identify a new maintainer.
Thanks for the response. What do you suggest to be the next action here, then? Can you reach out inside Red Hat to the two people you mentioned, and get a new maintainer for the package assigned? Or would it be easier to just push the "Orphan" button if you haven't been maintaining this package for some time?
Hi @decathorpe,
I am the new maintainer for this package.
Regards,
William

@prarit, you are still listed as the primary maintainer of mcelog. @wgomeringer, would you like us to hand over maintenance to you? Or @prarit can do it at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mcelog/settings#giveproject-tab.
@prarit ping, see previous comment
Oops. Sorry missed that. I get a " This user must be in one of the following groups to be allowed to be added to this project: packager" when I try to add @wgomeringer :(
If he's not a packager, then let's just proceed with the regular orphaning so someone can pick it up.
Once it's orphaned can I just pick it up once I read through
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Joining_the_Package_Maintainers/
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/How_to_Get_Sponsored_into_the_Packager_Group/
Would just need monitor https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/ for the orphaned package?
Thanks.
@prarit , please orphan the package if you're no longer maintaining it. Whether @wgomeringer gets sponsored and picks up the package or somebody else will pick it up in the meantime is not really important at this stage.
