Hi guys, gals!

Unfortunately I can not maintain my packages anymore, it is liquidsoap[1] and some ocaml dependencies of it (in fact, I am not using them anymore...) You can see the list here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&K=luuuciano

Maybe some of you want to own them, or a few of them?

No idea what it is the best way to do it, I will just Disown them now?

In the other hand, Thomas S Hatch sent an email to ocaml packagers[2]

Best regards and wishes! luciano

[1] http://savonet.sourceforge.net/ [2] Hello, I am the new ocaml findlib maintainer and I just letting the maintainers of ocaml packages know that I have changed some of the behavior of findlib to fix some issues.

These changes should not break your packages, but I am asking that the ocaml package developers change their packages to reflect these changes, and I just want them to be aware of them since it changes a lot of PKGBUILDs in the long run.

Thanks for your packages!

Luciano, I am sorry to hear that, if there was any way we could keep you on I would be thrilled, you have some good packages! But if you are not going to maintain them I will be happy to take care of these packages!

We appreciate your work for Arch and I appreciate your work on ocaml.

If you want to let them go just disown them and I will pick them up!

Also, if there is anything I have said of done to upset anyone with the ocaml changes please let me know, that is of course never my intention!

The problem is that I have no more time to do it, and I started it because I needed to run liquidsoap (it was a little netradio), but then that project ended (as my free time)

And I know that anyone else will do a way better job! :)

here a list of the disowned packages

liquidsoap ocaml-alsa ocaml-cry ocaml-dtools ocaml-duppy ocaml-lame ocaml-mad ocaml-magic ocaml-ogg ocaml-shout ocaml-soundtouch ocaml-taglib ocaml-vorbis

Best regards luciano

Thanks luciano, I will take care of them! -Tom
