I completely understand your concern here.

Orcan has indicated that he was looking to find a new maintainer for 
qtractor in any case. I'm more than happy to maintain both and 
personally deal with the fallout. I think in Fedora renaming this 
anything other than the 'qtractor' is unlikely. I'm happy to consider 
the alternatives option
