It's ridiculous to think that one person, even if member of GitHub organization (which may or may not mean anything), can single-handedly affect decision of either project. It's difficult even here at Arch, and we are one of smaller teams. I fail to understand how discussion got where it is now. Is sponsorship process about packaging quality and candidate in general or pushing some agenda through projects that applicant is helping with? Bartłomiej

[aur-general] TU resignation
Hi everyone, for a long time I've been both a developer and TU. As a trusted user I wasn't really involved with anything beyond looking for people that could be a good fit to Arch. With recent additions to the team, I'm sure you can keep the ball rolling on your own. Therefore I'm resigning from my TU position and remain "just" a grumpy developer.
