No open bugs, no open todos, used by 2% of people.  Sure, why not.
I'll take it.

As an aside, could we please never dump packages from [extra] to the
AUR with only a few hours of warning?  Packages in [extra] are
supposed to be held to a higher standard.  Not exactly fair to the
people who use the software either.  Moving straight from [extra] to
AUR is irresponsible and the thousands of people who use it deserve
better.

If you don't want to maintain something from [extra], dump it in
[community].  Plenty of TUs are rabidly anti-orphan so you can be sure
we'd take care of it.  It also provides more time for community
feedback.
