Final step for rt3 in EL-5

[Xavier Bachelot]

Hi all,

I've just made the request for an EL-5 branch for rt3. After some mail 
discussion with Marek Mahut, it appears he will not have enough time to 
maintain rt3 in EPEL, so I'll be the primary maintainer and he'll be 
co-maintainer. The only problem is rt3 is really a big piece of code and 
our perl-fu might not be strong enough in case of troubles, so any help 
to maintain this software for EPEL would be greatly appreciated. There 
was more than Marek and I showing interest in bringing this to EPEL, so 
I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Regards,
Xavier

What I mean is we might use more co-maintainers or at least a list of
people we can bother in case of trouble (security fix backport or this 
kind of stuff...). If you're willing to help with maintaining rt3, 
especially in EPEL, request co-maintainership or answer to the thread, 
I'll keep your name on my list. May be a wikipage (rt3 SIG ?) or 
something like that... I also have some RT addons that can be useful 
(RTx-Shredder, RTx-Statistics...), but they need some polishing before 
being worthy of a review. Well, let's not go too far from the original 
topic.

Smooge, you have extra karma points for being on top of the list. Your 
next life will be sweet, I promise ;-)
