Hi,

I'll take this as I use the program regularly anyway.

I'll take this, not that I have any interest in the non-bin variant.

I will take those packages.

Anyone who wants to co-maintain is welcome.

I use this, I can p-m it.

However, upstream seems partly, if not mostly dead (last PR merged was a
year ago, only 3 merged in the last ~2.5 years, 50+ outstanding PRs,
100+ outstanding issues). There's some more active forks, but none that
has yet unambiguously taken over the project. I'd welcome guidance on
when to decide to switch forks in SRC_URI vs carrying around
cherry-picked patches in files/.

If there's a GLEP covering this scenario I couldn't find it; offlist
would be fine unless my inability to Google is a useful learning moment
for others.

Thanks,

Does this mean I should expect last-rites and should add them to my 
overlay?

I use these and am willing to maintain them, but I don't think they
really need any changes either.

This package can be considered dead since KDE introduced a new Tiling
API [1] with Plasma 5.27, although there minimal development ongoing.
