A few problems need to be discussed and solved:
* When a release of Fedora Core becomes legacy, not seldomly a Fedora
Extras package maintainer moves on to the current or latest release of
Fedora Core and stops preparing/testing/publishing updates for the legacy
versions. Since not every package maintainer would "support" old legacy
branches, we need a way to mark individual package branches as "free for
adoption by Fedora Extras Legacy". With this comes the need to monitor
Maybe, before adoption by fedora extras legacy team, it should be possible
to have a possibility for individual contributors that are interested
in older branches of the project to take over maintainance of the older
branches. This could simply achieved by saying so to the maintainer of
the active branches and adding oneself to the owners.list to get the bugs
for that package, import the cvs package and work only on the old branches.
