Hi, gnomad2[1] is orphaned and a death project since 2011, may you delete it from aur?

thanks in advance
Just wondering why you want to delete this? I have an occasional use for it - admittedly haven't used it in a while but I do have it in my system build image. If it's just because it hasn't got an owner, I can step in if that helps...?
If there's another reason - like it's dead upstream and doesn't work any more because the ground has moved underneath it then fair enough. However I did just check the upstream URL and it would appear to be alive and kicking.

jaja don't missunderstand me, but overall the project is been death for 2 years... is a very old package and, furthermore, yes, it is orphaned.\
If it still builds and functions, it shouldn't be removed IMO. Who cares how old it is or that development is dead? There are packages in the main repos that have been dead for a decade.
