I'm orphaning about 600 perl packages from the AUR. I no longer have the time or feel the urge to maintain these packages anymore and there seems to be other people interested lately. About a year ago most of these packages were orphaned by xenoterracide and I wanted to keep an eye on them and update the ones people were using, or were complaining about being broken, adding comments to, etc. I think most of them are junk and don't really need to be on the AUR but I updated a little over 200 of them regularly.
Anyways... if you like maintaining perl packages, pick up your favorite. I have a list of them all but it's pretty long so I didn't paste it in here.

I'm a big fan of Perl, if you want to spend part of the package for me, I gladly accept. My user in AUR is "estranho"
Paste the list in pastebin.com or another of your choice. Greetings
