I think AUR2 would be just a temporary solution for our final purposes. I
started to plan/design quite a few weeks ago the new AUR generation with
Louipc, and we think of an absolutely new implementation/idea. We would like
for AUR to be a command-line based application like pacman. Well, I'd like
to see a more robust, and efficient impelementation of it, not a web based
application.

We started to redesign PKGINFO related things:

You can see here the state of it here:
