The listed package has been added directly with no maintainer which is a major QA and CoC violation. It already one bug reported (#590964) which the committer resolved without adding himself as maintainer as requested. Therefore: 1. I'd like to ask vapier to decide if he wishes to maintain the package or not. If the package is not given a maintainer in the next 7 days, it will be treecleaned. 2. I'd like QA to add this violation to vapier's file. commit 2d5acbfd1b87c3fb532757bee5167fa7d0cfec50 Author: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: Wed Aug 10 11:47:40 2016 Commit: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> CommitDate: Wed Aug 10 11:49:03 2016 dev-libs/mingw-libgnurx: initial ebuild #101468 [...] diff --git a/dev-libs/mingw-libgnurx/metadata.xml b/dev-libs/mingw-libgnurx/metadata.xml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6f49eba --- /dev/null +++ b/dev-libs/mingw-libgnurx/metadata.xml @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> +<!DOCTYPE pkgmetadata SYSTEM "http://www.gentoo.org/dtd/metadata.dtd"> +<pkgmetadata> +<!-- maintainer-needed --> +</pkgmetadata>
you're just making things up at this point. where exactly is the "major CoC violation" ? if it's so major, it should be easy for you to point at docs that say as much. this is really no different from adding to the tree, then removing myself as a package being "up for grabs".

Which is also a bad move trying to add something you want, then throw the responsibility for maintaining it on others. Intentionally growing the maintainer-needed package set is not a nice thing at all.
@comrel, please note this argument of 'doing bad thing X is fine because if I did it in two commits, you would not notice'.
Also, please do not remove evidence which is provided to interested parties for easy lookup.
