Hi people,
I've been orphaning a list of packages in the few days, but I do want to find a maintainer first before orphaning them (*tsk* *tsk* for non-TU maybe if you're interested in some of them is time to apply to be a TU :D).
Reasons to orphaning these packages are enough like (I don't need or won't use them on the near future, or I stopped recently to follow the development of them for whatever reason), so, if none of the TUs are interested on these packages and nobody wants to be a TU in order to maintain them, they will unfortunately go to AUR waiting for a new maintainer.
Some of them have opened bugs, are out of date, please if you think in adopt those packages is not just "bump the pkgrel" .. please take care of the bugs, updates, patches, etc.
The mentioned list is:
ctpl eclipse-emf eclipse-gef eclipse-mylyn eclipse-phpeclipse eclipse-subclipse eclipse-ve geany geany-plugins lxappearance lxdm lxlauncher lxpanel lxsession lxtask lxterminal perl-linux-pid pidgin-musictracker pidgin-otr tora
Thanks

Should nobody want/be able to keep them in the community repository and they end up dropping in to AUR, I would be happy and willing to maintain lx* packages. Whilst I would of course like to become a TU and contribute further, I'm not sure I'm up to the level required of the TUs at present. Regards, -- Joel Heaton
