You're right. And I notice that I also stated before that most of the 
Fedora core people (loosely defined term but definately including Ralf) 
are welcome to change and rebuild any of my packages at will.

Actually the idea of strict ownership evades me, I would rather prefer a 
more Wiki-like attitude (once you have a Fedora ID account and PGP key) - 
"BE BOLD", "If in doubt, fix it".
