Due to the requirement for contributors to sign the FPCA by Thursday
of
last
week, certain package owners who haven't yet signed will be removed from
the
packager group soon. When that happens, the packages that they own will
be
orphaned.
To try and minimize the problems this could cause, I'm publishing the
current list of packages to be orphaned and will start reassigning owners
if
someone asks to take them over. We want to make sure that important
packages are not going to be orphaned by this change. We're planning on
removing people from packager and orphaning packages on Thursday if all
goes
well.
The list of packages being orphaned are listed below and the list of
packages with first level dependencies will be attached. Note that the
dependency list could be incomplete in two ways:
1) Since I'm using source package names, we don't capture things that dep
on
a subpackage.
2) The list does not follow the dep chain out to see if something relies
on
something that relies on something that relies on a package that's being
orphaned.
Please reply to this thread if you'd like to take any packages or ping me
on
IRC and I'll reply to this thread with what packages have been taken.
(Needed since we aren't orphaning in the pkgdb until Thursday so you need
a cvsadmin to reassign ownership for now).

I'd take pitivi and xscorch, maybe others, I'll have a longer look later.
