Hello! I'm sorry to come in three and a half months after the fact
(does that mean that they'll all have to be re-reviewed? :( ), but
jruby is a dependency of some Java stuff that I'm currently working on
so I'd like to take over these packages.
MEF
They're all orphaned in pkgdb. I'm not sure what process you'll need to go
through to take them over (at the least, you'll probably have to talk to rel-
eng to get the dead.package's removed).
