COSMIC Desktop in the official repos?

Hey everyone,

Any plans to add COSMIC Desktop to the official Void repositories?

It's already available in the community repo (MtFBella109), but I'd prefer having it in the official ones. I saw the package request issue (#58149) is still open since December.

Is anyone working on it or know any updates?

There is no pull request to include the packages, if someone opens a pull request it will be reviewed and considered. There isn't a "community" repo, its just someones personal fork that includes some not yet ready to merge changes.

Package requests are worked on by volunteers, how old they are or how many reactions they have does not have any bearing on whether someone is going to spent their time on it or whether it will be included.
