[aur-general] Please orphan python-vpython
Hi, the package python-vpython (which moved from extra) is terribly outdated. Currently at 5.32 and broken, while 5.71 is out for quite some time. The package wasn't updated since 13'th Nov 2010 (exactly at time when it moved from extra, it was never updated even a bit), and it is sole package of this maintainer. Multiple people tried to contact the maintainer, including me (trough comments and email) and we had no luck. New, working versions of packages are posted in comments, but not uploaded. In this case I'd like to take over the package, at least to bring it up to date, and most likely maintain it afterwards. Thanks, Andrzej.
