Hi something is really going wrong at the moment. People claim for having other interests or not time for doing the packaging work. I start here only with [current] first. Jan quit doing maintenance of important parts of our distro and probably also of doing quite some update tirades through current.
Let me stress this, from my point of view Jan and me did the most [current] updates the last weeks, even if we didn't use the software for our own stuff, correct me if im wrong.
We have inactive package maintainers, no doubt. Judd, Dorphell, Aurelien, Gregor, Woody, Arjan
It's time to cleanup [current]. Orphan all packages of Judd, Dorphell, Aurelien, Gregor 1 week of time to grab what packages you wanna have. Keep in mind it's your job then to test and ensure that the package works! Please one of the enablers do this, or give me the permission to orphan them.
Is it possible to have a step before this one that's not as disruptive? This will create a lot of orphans very quickly.
Jason Well that way you see quickly who wants to take packages and which ones need
