Good work Allan.

The few packages I maintain in that list I will certainly move to 
community.

But don't forget that we also have those two wiki pages:

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Package_Cleanup

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Repo_Cleanup

I think it would be a good idea to merge the above two pages to the 
third one. We should not have 3+ pages devoted to one identical task.
