[aur-general] TUs adopting packages from the AUR

[Stijn Segers]

Guys,

When I saw this discussion about sage-mathematics I was just wondering what is customary when a TU
wants to adopt packages that are not his and are maintained by someone in the AUR.

I had a couple of those (remmina-plugins and freerdp) and from one day to another my packages were
'gone' from AUR. Only after that some TU sent me a message that he had taken my packages. There was
nothing in the AUR ML about moving it.

Is this how this is usually done? I know developers aren't great communicators, but it sure struck
me as impolite, rude even.

Thanks

B
