Guys,
When I saw this discussion about sage-mathematics I was just wondering what is customary when a TU wants to adopt packages that are not his and are maintained by someone in the AUR.
I had a couple of those (remmina-plugins and freerdp) and from one day to another my packages were 'gone' from AUR. Only after that some TU sent me a message that he had taken my packages. There was nothing in the AUR ML about moving it.
Is this how this is usually done? I know developers aren't great communicators, but it sure struck me as impolite, rude even.
Thanks
B

python-scipy - this is screwy... ?the version in [community-testing] has the same pkgrel-pkgver as that in [community] but they are different packages.
Fixed and moved
Can these be moved/fixed.
Thanks, Allan
I agree that TUs should be more verbal about moving packages to community, not only for other people's packages. That said, there should be some automated way of doing this to make it easier for the TUs.
