| Provenpackagers are members of the 'provenpackager' group. In addition to the rights granted to members of 'packager', provenpackagers are able to commit changes to packages they do not own or maintain. They are a group of skilled package maintainers who are experienced in a wide variety of package types and who are familiar with the [[Packaging:Guidelines|packaging guidelines]] and [[Package_maintainer_policy|package maintainer policies]], as well as acutely aware of [[Releases/Schedule|release schedule]] and [[ReleaseEngineering#Freeze_Policies|freeze policies]].

| Provenpackagers lend a hand when help is needed, always with a desire to improve the quality of Fedora. Provenpackagers should try to communicate with owners of a package in bugzilla, irc or email prior to making changes. They should be careful not to change other people's packages needlessly and try to do the minimal changes required to fix problems, as explained more in depth in the policy explaining [[who is allowed to modify which packages]]. To exclude a package from provenpackagers access, you have to open a ticket at [https://pagure.io/fesco/new_issue FESCo issue tracker] and explain why provenpackagers should not have access to it. [[Fedora_Engineering_Steering_Committee | FESCo]] will discuss and vote on one of its weekly meetings about your request.
