[aur-general] A simple introduction
by Tanner Danzey 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Since I've never really learned mailing list etiquette, I'm not sure this is the right place. Nevertheless... My name is Tanner, currently residing in strange-weathered Fargo, ND. I work as a support technician / system engineer at a local managed service provider. We use Linux for anything that we aren't paid specifically to use Windows for. I have a breadth of skill in both general IT / system tasks as well as programming (C/C++, Ruby, Python, Web Design, PHP, Haskel). I have developed a deep fondness for the Arch community as a result of lurking over the last few months. I've taken it upon myself to maintain some niche orphaned packages on the AUR (bff, 3dpong, emu65el02) and I'd like to dedicate more time helping you guys out. I'm on IRC frequently as Arkaniad, usually lurking or having it running in the background during some various task. Long story short, I like you guys and I'm gonna stick around for a while. Hello :)

[aur-general] Tuxtype or tuxtyping

Hi, These packages are in the AUR, unfortunately they are both failing to build because, I assume, they aren't being maintained. I was wondering if someone would be willing to go fix them? I was hoping to use one or the other to teach my kids how to type. They have about a 2 second attention span if there's not flashing lights and colors/points/coin sounds involved lol.

Please delete https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/imaplib2. I must have accidentally uploaded it, and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python2-imaplib2/ is the real thing. No votes or comments, so no point in merging. -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera
