Erm, I have been quite active in august on bugzilla, for instance, I
helped fixing many python3 FTBFS.

Surprising for a project that had its last stable in 2015 and was
mostly dead since.
I hadn't touched it for a while, as it got updated regularly by the
desktop team.

Incorrect, I did answer and yes I forgot about this.
Did you ask for access? No

These needs co-maintainers, sexy should have been retired long ago,
I kept them around as other packages depends on it.
Again, if you want perms, just ask!

> python-daiquiri: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1605649

I missed these as they were not in the python37 FTBFS tracker.
I'll get them fixed today.

Needs a co-maintainer

This one has co-maintainers and was actively attended by the desktop team.

Co-maintainers are welcome, otherwise, I'll deprecate that.

The policy mention that you have to try contacting the maintainer
*first*, you never sent me an email or pinged me on irc.
I don't like this kind of passive-aggressive approach, had you
contacted me, we would have sorted this out quickly, co-maintainers
are welcome.

One more thing, when you want to contact someone in the project =>
<username>@fedoraproject.org should always work.

Regards,
H.
