Hi AUR Community,

I’m giving up all the packages I maintain for adoption.  Unfortunately, I don’t have any time to maintain them in the foreseeable future.  You’ll noticed that quite a few of them have Dockerfiles.  This is because I was doing my development work on a Mac.  The image in those Dockerfiles is a custom image that I created which publishes a new version daily (https://github.com/brianrobt/archlinux-aurdev-docker-image).  That process is completely automated, but if it should ever break, then I probably won’t have time to fix it.  Anyway, most of you probably wouldn’t even use it to begin with since you’re developing on Arch, but I thought it’d be useful to know.

I also have a GitHub repo where I’ve been keeping copies of the files on each AUR package (https://github.com/brianrobt/aur-pkgbuilds).  I setup a bit of automation to perform package updates, but it’s doesn’t work with some of the packages and isn’t really “production-ready”.  It may be useful for any new maintainers.

Here are the packages that I’m orphaning:

- alist

- simplex-chat-bin

- stable-diffusion.cpp-vulkan-git

- nmctl

- netclient

- htmlhint

- pixieditor-bin

- python-nspektr

- openmohaa-git

- openmohaa

- rocm-clang-ocl

- rot8-git

- outwiker

- arduino-avr-core

- rapidyaml

- python-rapidyaml

- gradle-language-server

- python-mouseinfo

I greatly appreciated and enjoyed working with the other AUR maintainers.  It was a great experience, and I hope that I can return to the community sooner rather than later.  Thank you for all of the help and support!
