I started to add a few items.

I intend to go through the list of all orphaned packages in extra and make 
2 lists out of it: one list with all the packages that are (make)depends 
of packages owned by a dev and that needs to be adopted, and the other 
list of packages that can potentially be removed. I believe it will help 
speeding up the adoption/assignment process and will make the cleanup 
process easier as we'll be able to focus on a smaller package set. It'll 
probably be done later this week or next week-end.  I'll post the 2 lists 
on the wiki when I'll be done.
