Interesting, that you believe knowing more than me as writer of the text ;)
If a downstream and upstream maintainer wants to focus on upstream rather
on downstream, he/she/it could look for a new maintainer and itself step
down getting just co-maintainer - especially if he/she/it is not interested
in enhancing own RPM packaging skills (which is strange for a packager).
Very similar to this is just to look for a co-maintainer and let him/her do
more packaging work rather bugfixing and upstream <-> downstream handling.
And to repeat myself once more: We still need more quality rather quantity
in Fedora - this also affects packaging.
Greetings,
Robert
