Interesting. I did not know that a proven packager can bypass the
request-branch request check that requires the person the be in admin(?) list
of the package.

Recently some had a similar issue. Effectively packagers willing to maintain
EPEL packages cannot do it because of a lack of Fedora maintainer's blessing.

Do you mean a Pagure group <https://src.fedoraproject.org/groups/>? I thought
we already have perl-sig group for sending the notifications. Is that
a differnt class of groups?

I would prefer shorter "perl-sig" group name.

I'm not against, but I agree with Paul that it will hit the silent wall again.
