[gentoo-dev] Packages that need maintainers

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

The following packages require a new maintainer, some might just be
absorbed into their herds w/o a direct maintainer leaving them to the
teams maintaining those herds, others might face extinction w/o a direct
maintainer.

./app-admin/gtkdiskfree
./sci-astronomy/celestia
./net-firewall/ipkungfu
./media-gfx/povray
./net-misc/tightvnc
./x11-wm/icewm
./dev-libs/boost
./dev-perl/Event-ExecFlow (dvd::rip dep)
./dev-perl/AnyEvent        (dvd::rip dep)
./dev-util/ketchup
./app-benchmarks/cpuburn
./app-benchmarks/bonnie++
./media-video/kino
./media-video/dvdrip
./app-cdr/dvdshrink
./games-emulation/mupen64-riceplugin
./games-emulation/mupen64-glide64
./games-emulation/mupen64-glN64
./games-emulation/mupen64-blight-tr64gl
./games-emulation/mupen64-blight-input
./games-emulation/mupen64-jttl_sound
./games-emulation/mupen64
./games-emulation/mupen64-blight-uhleaudio
./media-plugins/xmms-xf86audio

This list might not be perfect, but a simple grepping the tree shows
those listing morfic@gentoo.org as direct maintainer, with the exception
of icewm (which has bcowan@gentoo.org and hanno@gentoo.org listed) also
as the only one.

Some items have currently open bugs which i will try to eliminate or at
least minimize as much as possible.

Re: [gentoo-dev] Packages that need maintainers

[spradlim]

I have a question that I havn't been able to find that is somewhat
related to the following email.  I know and understand Linux very well.
I also know how ebuilds work.  So how do I go about maintaining packages
and getting them into portage.  For example I would like to maintain a
munin, munin-plugin, and tightvnc ebuild.  Where can I find this
information.  I don't know where to start.

Thanks,
Michael

As a user you must find a sponser in order to take full maintership. You
might be able to find a dev to handle your commits and reviews until
such a time you find a sponser.

In the first instance, do the work on bugzilla.  Look for open bugs for
existing packages, and post fixes/patches there.  For packages not
currently in portage, raise a new bug.

you really had to count keywording bugs and a dep on a version no longer
in the tree?
no, not keeping them ;P

Does the media-video herd^H^H^H^Hgroup automatically inherit this one ? If not, and if nobody volunteers, I'm willing to salvage it. I have somewhere 
an ebuild for kino-0.8.1 that includes an --as-needed fix.

although it would be absorbed by them, if you already did the work and
are willing to work on it, noone should stop you ;)

Feel free to join media-video team and take care of it, we're _really_ 
understaffed especially for video editors.

Perl herd will grab these. For that matter, the metadata already points
to us...
