So why didn't you bail out and what are you happy with? Not rhetoric. I am genuinely interested to know.
I started lurking on some of the #fedora channels and jumped on a bunch of the mailing lists. In the end, listening to a lot of the discussions finally concvinced me that I wanted to be part of the project, so I just went ahead and signed up and contributed my package.
I am trying to get my work to use RHEL/CentOS more and more, and so getting the packages in place in an "official" repo (EPEL) is somewhat important to that. In this case I had the power to make it happen myself and so it was worth signing up and I'm glad I did.
Thanks for the feedback. We know that editing the wiki for someone not in the edit group is way too complicated than necessary. The underlying problem required legal clarification which we have got recently. The wiki contributors can just require a click through signup but that requires some infrastructure work that hasn't done yet but it is something that needs to be fixed asap.
Appreciate all the work you guys do.
