Hi,

I think that the whole story should prompt us and the Project Fedora itself to
reconsider the way we treat the most active and valuable members of our
community.

During the last few years, Jean-Baptiste put unprecedented efforts to make
Fedora translations excellent. In fact, they are almost there now. We have now
reliable platforms (Weblate and pagure) to deal with all major tasks. We have
tools to check the translation integration in the distribution and many, many
other useful things.

But... we lost the spirit of the community somehow. We did not support Jean-
Baptiste the way we should. And now he is gone. We should decide what to do
now.

Best regards,
Yuri
