After Daniel's resignation, mono related packages became orphan. anthraxx and grazzolini adopted nuget and mono itself, but the following packages still don't have a maintainer:

monodevelop xsd mod_mono mono-basic boo mono-debugger mono-upnp gtk-sharp-beans gettext-mono

and others I may have missed. mono stuff breaks frequently (in fact most of these packages don't build currently) so they need a dedicated maintainer. Please adopt them if you're interested (or reply here so they're moved to community if you're a TU), otherwise I'll drop them in a few days.

A small clarification, I have adopted nuget because it is required by one of my packages. If monodevelop gets dropped, then it would be a requirement just to that package.

As for mono, it is a requirement for some of my packages and I use it indirectly on a daily basis. Both me and Levente agreed to co-maintain it because it is indeed a very problematic package. We plan to upgrade it soon, probably on staging even.

As for the remaining orphans, I will have a look later this week to make sure they are not optional dependencies or would break something else, because the dependency chain with mono can get messy.

Can you let me do the drop or ping me on IRC/email before doing so?
