Keeping a list and periodically going through it seems fine to me. Are |
24 |
you or someone else interested in joining devrel to get this implemented |
25 |
and maintained? The policy should probably be written as a GLEP and I |
26 |
can help with that but until GSoC is over I am pretty much fully booked |
27 |
for Gentoo time so I would like to avoid championing it at this point. |
