[aur-general] Followup on comaintainers and maintainers help requests
(( the following post is a cross post of the forum post here - https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1861865 )) Since making the previous post about retiring my AUR account, the following occurred to me. * I still like doing AUR work. But it's not something I can reliably provide like before. So I'm not sure how to handle being able to do it on the sidelines without making myself seem unavailable on purpose. * People might not be willing to pick up a package after it's been orphaned due to not knowing the maintenance problems I've had with some packages in the past. * Some packages might not be used enough to know when the sources are broken, thus needing updating. * Some packages required maintenance from upstream developers due to no one else being available to maintain it. So I've compiled a list of packages that need co-maintainers, those that I've kept due to low maintenance time, and those that are potentially orphanable due to maintenance circumstances. This list can be found here. https://write.as/l15zfw3838y89q0c.md Is there anything else I should do to make it easier for future maintainers to help ease their workload?
