You told me about this privately on IRC and asked if it was OK to
mention it in your application. That was kind of you, but you should
have waited more than 9 minutes for my response before going ahead and
sending in your application.

To answer your question though, I will keep my community packages in
[community] since I don't see a reason to move them and Developers are
allowed to maintain packages in [community].

Thanks for the thought though; it's always good for orphan packages to
get adopted. Good luck with your application!

[aur-general] Resigning as TU

[Evangelos Foutras via aur-general]

For a long time I have been inactive in TU matters (i.e.: handling AUR
requests, looking into TU applicants, and overseeing community
contributions in general). Due to this, I feel it's proper to let go
of my TU title.

No heartfelt goodbyes, since my involvement in Arch remains unchanged.

 I already spoke with Gianni Vialetto the actual mantainer of

 The reason is mainly that the script name is gibo, so it's way
 simpler to look for it that way and also he doesn't have time to
 continue maintaining the package.

gitignore-boilerplates makes for a more meaningful package name and is
also the name of the upstream repo [1] Debian is considering using the
same name as well [2].

What do you think about keeping gitignore-boilerplates-git and
