Send me a list of these packages. But ensure they are still orphan and are not a dep or makedep of any package in core/extra.
Well, there's only a few packages left (others have already been moved or are required by another [core]/[extra] package):
* bluez-firmware * cmus * evilwm * fortune-mod * id3v2 * jhead * libofx * libofx-doc * lirc * lzo * msmtp * ncftp * pdksh * perl-timedate * pidgin-encryption
Status? Only bluez-firmware has been adopted yet.
Note that fortune-mod is an optdep of xfce4-session and id3v2 is an optdep of gtkpod (I can also maintain gtkpod if no one else wants to but I don't use it, so this might not be in the sense of this cleanup).
I'm not sure about lirc either, I'd prefer if someone could adopt both lirc and lirc-utils and maintain them in [extra] (lirc-utils is required by a bunch of [extra] packages).

Ooh I'll take vsftpd if that's available. I use it all the time. --Kaiting.

Oh never mind that's taken, I could take bzr, proftpd, openbabel, and vim. Out of these avogadro which is in [extra] depends on openbabel. Surprisingly the only non-vim package that depends on vim is archboot and that is in [extra]. Which means that the entirety of the vim ecosystem in Arch could potentially be moved to [community] (except for archboot). --Kaiting.
What about pmount? Since I use it, I can pick it up in AUR... -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key ID: 164B5A6D Key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
