Yes, keep my fvwm-devel package. You can move it to extra. I also use 
gqview-devel so move it extra as well. I'll take it if Damir no longer 
wants it.

Damir has several packages in unstable. I don't know if he still wants 
them.

BTW, mplayer-svn is orphaned. Does anyone want to adopt it? If it's not 
actively maintained, then perhaps we might as well remove it completely.
