I don't think there are TUs interested in e17... otherwise we would
have heard from them. Did you try to contact the takhis repo
maintainer? It looks like he's still updating the packages, and he's
also AUR's maintainer (nickname: reverie).
I have just send reverie a mail. For future reference, as he may contact the aur-general mailing list directly, here is the relevant part:
