[gentoo-dev] Maintainer-needed on many of my packages

[gentoo-dev] Maintainer-needed on many of my packages

[Robin H. Johnson]

Hi all,

As a followup on my October email, I'm dropping some more packages.
In October, I was still at 300+, now I'm at 195, and I think the ~60 odd
below should also go out to other developers.

The prior email primarily covered packages where I was there maintainer,
and there was no herd to take the package. This email by comparison, is
explicitly packages where there is a herd, but I'm explicitly listed as
a maintainer.

Mostly I'm listing them because I have no further need for the package:
either at work, or I haven't personally used it it in more than year.
I added some of these a decade ago, when I first joined Gentoo, and
needed them for my university classes. 

The great majority of these work perfectly fine, and in many cases, they
are up to date with no bugs.

I'm taking care of this one, and you are only listed as proxy-maintainer ;-)

We have a good team taking care of this already.

Should be doing well with python team coverage.

Thanks for all the maintenance!

Cheers,

I'd take these ones, if no one objects.

Obviously I'll keep on working on this one along with the cluster team.

Is this still remotely useful with KMS-enabled kernels ?

I believe so. I have used it recently to control the LVDS backlight
when not in X.
