Allan, I always wondered how you managed to do all the stuff your 
involved in. So thank you for your engagement and good luck to upcoming 
projects.

I adopted :
gtvg
multiget
tagtool
winefish
xmltv
perl-fcgi
perl-html-tree
perl-http-cache-transparent
perl-http-response-encoding
perl-lingua-en-numbers
perl-lingua-en-numbers-ordinate
perl-lingua-preferred
perl-soap-lite
perl-text-bidi
perl-text-kakasi
kakasi
perl-unicode-utf8simple

According to xmltv's PKGBUILD I also have to move perl-date-manip to 
community as a dependency.
