Hehe, you cannot start a removal voting, because dtw is not a TU since he resigned after becoming a dev. ;-) (that was on 6th of July, 2007).
He still has some packages in community (last time he given out some of them) (some of which I was going to maintain, but became unable to do this... :-()
So, I'd say that people who want to take his packages contact him personally, so this just wouldn't become a surprise for him.

Did anyone contact me personally? I was surprised! Full marks for enthusiasm, guys and gals, and thank you for keeping "my" pkgs up to date. I say "my" because one thing I always disliked about this pkg maintenance business was the sense of ownership and I had hoped after my absence I would not feel so attached to "my" pkgs but I do! I miss you geany! *sob* However, I'm not asking for any of them "back" but if it's more convenient for my remaining pkgs (i.e. deps) I might contact people about readopting some of them. I also might move some of the more mature and popular pkgs to [extra] depending on the situation there. Cheers and thanks again dtw
