[gentoo-dev] net-im/skype needs a maintainer

[Markos Chandras]

Hi,

net-im/skype needs a maintainer. It's currently maintained by the
net-im team which is not very active.
If you look at the ChangeLog you will see that for the past few years
random developers are trying to keep it
up to date ( and thanks for that! ). However it would be nice to find
a maintainer who will fix the pending bugs
and bump it to the latest release. In the meantime, I will re-assign
it to maintainer-needed@ so proxy-maintainers
can step-up and help if someone from the user community is willing to
maintain it.

Those listed plugins work fine with xfce-base/libxfcegui4 ("old copy" of 
libxfce4ui)
Some of those will get -pthread passed as CFLAGS, and thus, resolving 
the problem of symbol 'clock_gettime'

Possible someone is trying to play a hero here. Watch out!!!
