[gentoo-dev] johu's packages up for grabs

Hey,

due to inactivity the following packages are now up for grabs:
app-admin/calamares
app-admin/profile-cleaner
app-crypt/zulucrypt
app-doc/zsh-lovers
app-misc/screenfetch
dev-cpp/websocketpp
dev-libs/qtkeychain
dev-vcs/gti
media-sound/lollypop
net-im/discord-bin
net-misc/sshpass
net-vpn/openfortivpn
sys-apps/daemonize
sys-fs/fuse-zip
x11-apps/luit
x11-misc/compton
x11-misc/fpm2
x11-misc/obconf
x11-misc/sxhkd
x11-terms/xterm
x11-wm/bspwm

There's a lot of stabilization to be done, few EAPI-5, and lots of bugs
open in general (especially with discord-bin).

I would like to look after screenfetch via proxy-maint (unless
another dev wants to look after it).

Thanks,
Matthew

monsieurp took it at the exact same minute as this mail's timestamp,
so imagine never had a chance to see it.

I'll take this.

I'd argue this is a last-rite candidate, people should be informed
to switch to its active fork, x11-misc/picom.

I feel like this package should just be bumped by whoever happens to
be available rather than waiting after 1 maintainer.

To clarify my thoughts on this, not to say it can't be picked up
by someone to handle bugs in general -- but instructions that
other devs can do bumps wouldn't hurt.

Took compton under myself and added x11 project into xterm since it's
kind of default/fallback terminal for xorg.

I was not aware compton is to be dropped from tree. Ignore my takeover
and drop it as you see fit.

I'm using net-vpn/openfortivpn almost everyday and I would like to start
contributing to Gentoo. If possible, I would not mind to start looking
after it, alone or to co-maintain it with someone who knows more
about maintaining a package. Also, I would not mind some hits on where to
start, but I'm sure I can find enough information on Gentoo docs.

Hey,

thanks for your interest! I see there's a lot to do with openfortivpn.
First, there's a version bump available, and a relatively simply-looking
bug you could try to fix with the version bump,
  https://bugs.gentoo.org/766357

Then you can call for a stabilization of a newer version,
 net-vpn/openfortivpn
   StableRequest: version 1.16.0: slot(0) no change in 161 days for
unstable keyword: [ ~amd64 ]

and after stabilization is done, you can attempt to remove the older
versions. Please see
https://devmanual.gentoo.org/keywording/index.html#moving-from-arch-to-arch
for stabilization guide.

We prefer getting pull requests through Github, see
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_Github for a general guide into
that. If you use IRC, you can join #gentoo-dev-help on Libera.chat
network to get more guidance.

You can contribute to maintainer-needed packages without having to
become the maintainer. We do allow regular users to become maintainers
of packages they're interested in via the proxy-maint project,
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers
but we'd first like to see some successful contributions and consistency
from you. As said, you can freely contribute to maintainer-needed
packages without having to become the maintainer.

Will be taken over by kde proj as a current (and more in the future) 
dependency.
