Hi,
The user tdy [1] seems no longer active. He has 360 packages with 50 outdated. Last activity I've been able to spot is mid-2011.
Could someone orphan all his packages for other people to adopt them.
I have not contacted him but he is in cc of this email.

Obviously we should wait till he either responds or not. Then we can take action.

I thought that I'd seen him/her being active, at least in comments. But, perhaps I just recognise the name due to the large number of packages (s)he maintains.
But yeah, before orphaning that many packages, I think we should wait a reasonable amount of time for a response to the email.
Pete.

I presume you mean bcc? Either that, or you forgot to add his address to the cc.
Just checking :-)

No I do was meaning cc and he did was cc of my email. I'm not sure why it looks different from the ML side.

Nearly one month has gone since my initial request. What the decision on this?
Status is that we're waiting for you to let us know if you didn't get a reply, two weeks after contacting him.

No I did not. Sorry if my previous mail sounded like "what are you waiting for?", it was not my point. ;-)
There is a lot of packages involved. I'm not sure if all packages should be orphaned at once or if only outdated packages should be in a first time.
No worries.
If he's inactive, nothing has happened with any of his packages for a while, he has several outdated packages and does not reply to e-mails, I think we should consider the user as inactive and orphan all the packages.
Any other opinions on this?

I also concur. Anything new about this?
How about orphaning all his outdated packages right now, but wait just a tiny bit longer with the ones that aren't flagged? What if he's travelling the world for a year?

Shouldn't he have announced that? I mean, that's a prolonged inactivity for sure. But your approach seems reasonable.

AUR package maintainers should announce their absence? Where and how?

Oh sorry, I confused that with the rules for a TU. m( But this would have been nice nonetheless; maybe a message in the comments of his packages or a mail to aur-general. Does not hurt anybody. :)

Totally agree. Maybe we could put a note here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR#Maintaining_packages
Ok, disowned all his flagged packages. If there are broken packages that aren't flagged, I'm ready to disown those as well.
If a TU feels like disowning all the packages, just do it.
Disowned all flagged AUR packages older than 04 Oct 2007 while I was at it (there are plenty more that can be disowned).

Make that 20 Feb 2012.
