Excerpts from Frederik Schwan's message of julho 31, 2025 10:32 am:
Just because nobody noticed back then doesn't mean the rules may not be enforced in the future.
I think I might be one of the few remaining devs that were TU and then resigned. Bluewind was one, as well as Bart. And this was never an issue before. I myself, I think I've sponsored 2 people after resigning as TU, including Tomaz here. I have raised this issue when the PM RFC was being discussed, and as well, discussed it with some other developers. But besides that, the wording of the PM RFC, was meant to unite devs and TU's into a single PM role, and I believe that anyone that packages is a PM and should be able to vote on other PM's applications. If you want to enforce this, now it's not the time. An ammendment to the PM RFC should be made to explicitly prohibit developers from sponsoring PMs (which I don't think makes sense).
