The user tdy [1] seems no longer active. He has 360 packages with 50 outdated.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.

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 have not contacted him but he is in cc of this email.

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. -- Cédric Girard

Status is that we're waiting for you to let us know if you didn't get a reply, two weeks after contacting him. -- Cordially,  Alexander Rødseth  Arch Linux Trusted User  (xyproto on IRC, trontonic on AUR)

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 If he's inactive, nothing has happened with any of his packages for a while, he has several outdated packages and does not reply to e-mails, I think we should consider the user as inactive and orphan all the packages.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? -- Cordially,  Alexander Rødseth  Arch Linux Trusted User  (xyproto on IRC, trontonic on AUR)

I concur.

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How about orphaning all his outdated packages right now, but wait just a tiny bit longer with the ones that aren't flagged?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. Christoph

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. :) Christoph

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. -- Cordially,  Alexander Rødseth  Arch Linux Trusted User  (xyproto on IRC, trontonic on AUR)
