Inactive Provenpackagers SOP

This document describes the process for identifying and removing inactive provenpackagers in accordance with FESCo policy.

Trigger/timing

This process occurs once per release cycle, starting at or near the branch day. It occurs in two parts.

Process

Identify and notify inactive provenpackagers

  1. Generate a kerberos ticket with fkinit -u <YOUR FEDORA ACCOUNT ID>

  2. Run the inactive_provenpackagers.py script from the pgm_scripts repo. This script iterates over all members of the provenpackagers group, so it may take a while. Since it’s a read-only operation, it’s safe to re-run if it gets interrupted.

  3. Send an announcement of accounts identified as inactive using the template below. Use the devel-announce mailing list in the to: field and bcc the @fedoraproject.org addresses of listed as inactive.

In accordance with FESCo policy[1], the following provenpackagers will
be submitted for removal in two weeks based on a lack of Koji builds
submitted in the last six months. If you received this directly, you
can reply off-list to indicate you should still be in the
provenpackager group.

Note that removal from this group is not a "punishment" or a lack of
appreciation for the work you have done. The intent of the process is
to ensure contributors with distro-wide package privileges are still
active and responsive. This process is done regularly at the branch
point in each release.
