I=E2=80=99m happy to= =20 have done so, and glad that it=E2=80=99s proved useful to others. One of=20 the concerns raised as I was going through that process was=20 responsibility for ongoing maintenance. I offered to take that=20 on, and have followed through, continuing to contribute patches=20 which improve the package and update it as new upstream releases=20 occur -- which is very frequently. Unfortunately, much of this=20 work is wasted, as the patches remain mired in the review backlog.=20 The package is now three major version out of date and suffers=20 from numerous CVEs. The initial patch to update the version to=20 127.x was submitted on June 29th; updated to 128.x on July 17th;=20 and I=E2=80=99ll be sending the patch updating it to 129.x later today,=20 after I=E2=80=99ve finished building and testing it. I=E2=80=99m stuck in an impossible situation. I can=E2=80=99t apply for co= mmitter=20 access until I have more accepted contributions, but can=E2=80=99t build=20 those contributions unless my patches are reviewed. It=E2=80=99s=20 frustrating and demoralizing. Are there, perhaps, one or two committers who=E2=80=99d be willing to work= =20 more closely with me on LibreWolf on an ongoing basis? I=E2=80=99m not=20 asking for help doing the work of maintaining the browser itself,=20 which I remain committed to doing. I=E2=80=99m purely looking to=20 consitently get timely feedback and review, because the normal=20 process for contributions cannot reliably provide it. A second, and smaller question, is: is there a mechanism to direct=20 others=E2=80=99 contributions to LibreWolf to me for review, without=20 subscribing to every patch sent to Guix? I have seen some=20 patches, and participated, but I have to go look for those, and=20 it=E2=80=99d be more convenient if they were directed to me in the first=20 place. Thanks, =E2=80=94 Ian
