Hmm, on 30-01-08
Anyway, package adopted and updated.
I think that is fine. If a new version was out for a long time and there was no update the owner probably doesn't use it anymore (at its latest version) and so I think this is a good solution.
Maybe mail him again and tell him you got his package.
I sent him a mail right after posting a reply to the list, and he responded in about an hour. He said that he didn't receive an out-of-date notification, and hadn't noticed it was out of date. I told him that if he wants it back, just email us and we'll re-orphan it. I just don't like orphaning packages unless we know that the maintainer isn't already aware of what's going on or they have disappeared altogether. Aaron "ElasticDog" Schaefer --
