Hi TUs,
I've just created a new proposal concerning the orphaning of all packages marked 'out of date' which have not been updated (or submitted) since before January 1st, 2009. For details, see the actual proposal text.
The voting period ends on October 10th, please cast your votes!

I propose clean up the orphaned packages as well. There are many packages (about 900) that are orphan and also flaged as out of date. Aur is becoming a cementary of old packages, many people abandon packages that aren't need them anymore, or just have been dropped by their original developers. One way can be delete all the packages that have been outdated for about a year and have 2 months orphaned. Its a idea, there can be other criteria. But, please consider thoroughly if the packages haven't been updated in one year and have months orphan is very likely that isn't used by anybody.
