the way I saw it, Jeremiah would become the primary maintainer (in his github repo)
and we remove http://projects.archlinux.org/aif.git/
quite frankly, that repo has done nothing but causing confusion.  I've always preferred github.

now you're basically saying "arch linux developers" are the new aif maintainer. that's fine by me too.
I didn't expect any arch devs to be interested in the burden of maintaining aif.
