I will not hold office hours next week due to travel, but if you’ll be at DevConf.CZ, you can catch me in person.
Announcements
- Orphaned packages seeking maintainers
- Long term FTBFS packages will be retired in February.
- Spins and labs must send a keepalive by 22 January.
- The start of the Fedora 32 mass rebuild is delayed until 27 January. The mass rebuild window will still end on 11 February, so no subsequent schedule dates are changed.
