Already said in private... Really sad to see you leave! And thanks a lot for
the work you've done.
As I knew before I've already rebuilt your packages. We can revoke your key's
signatures without breakage.
Just adopted rawtherapee, but I am not using this a lot. Who ever wants to is

Re: [aur-general] TU Resignation
Thank you all for your kind/encouraging words :) I guess I should have mentioned this before: good luck to all of *you*! The job is certainly not an easy one, and this has made me more appreciative of the work that is done around here, and the open source community in general.

Operating on the minimum amount of sleep that a human can survive on is not enjoyable, in case you were wondering. All laziness and time-lacking aside, both of my production machines have been fried due to power surges (which components, I yet don't know), and are now reduced to nothing more than fancy metal boxes. This leaves me with an old Thinkpad, but that's not even running Arch at the moment (/heresy), and it's a P4, so trying to manage multicore packages from there would be a no-go. It's just a very frustrating time, and I don't feel that I'm capable of being an active package maintainer considering the circumstances. Hopefully I can reapply sometime in the future if things fall back into place. My packages are, as far as I know, *mostly* up-to-date, although a month's absence can create a bit of mayhem. I will try my best to contribute and close out any open bug reports that I may be assigned to, but I can't make any definite promises. It's been a nice run guys, I hope to see you 'round. Sincerely, Brad p.s. there were some personal issues as well, but I don't really feel the need to get into those here ~ we can let Xyne speculate with one of his riveting stories Brad, I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully you'll find some time again in the future. The computer stuff for packaging should be a problem we could easily sort out though as we have a fast buildbox.

= AVR packages =
The AVR family is badly in need of some love. The wonderful djgera did
all the grunt work (see
http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2010-March/008369.html),
now someone just has to take these little guys and update them. As
with every toolchain, though, there's quite a bit to catch up with,
and a whole lot to learn. Not for the faint of heart.
* avrdude (OOD)
* avr-libc (OOD)
* binutils-avr (OOD)
* gcc-avr (OOD)
= PulseAudio friends =
These are really popular and still hope to go in [extra], because a
lot of [extra] software could depend on them. The pulseaudio PKGBUILD
needs some time to become friends with, not mentioning the package
configuration, but if you stick to stable releases and refuse to
patch the hell out of it as its author does in RedHat, you'll be fine.
One open bug: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18527
* pulseaudio
* gstreamer0.10-pulse
* libao-pulse
* libasyncns
* padevchooser
* paman
* paprefs
* pavucontrol
* pavumeter
* rtkit
* xmms-pulse
= Eclipse Plug-Ins =
Mostly low-maintenance packages, they usually just need a relbump
thanks to my super-unreadably-duper-perfectly-working PKGBUILDs.
* eclipse-emf: needs to be ported to -any
* eclipse-gef (OOD)
* eclipse-mylyn (OOD)
* eclipse-phpeclipse
* eclipse-subclipse (OOD)
* eclipse-ve
= {G,W}ammu =
A couple of programs to manage cell phones. Not always the easiest of
builds but it's been stable for quite some time now.
* gammu
* wammu
= Gmusicbrowser =
My favorite music player, a tricky PKGBUILD (read: do everything by
hand) but the developer is very friendly and helpful, and incredibly
fast to reply. Optdepends hell.
* gmusicbrowser
* flac123
* perl-gstreamer
* perl-gstreamer-interfaces (OOD)
* perl-gtk2-mozembed
= Musepack =
Upstream releases are rare and not exactly packager-friendly.
* musepack-tools
* libcuefile
* libreplaygain
= Beast =
Hasn't seen a release in ages, but it returned active upstream a few
months ago. Usually needs patches.
* beast
* bse-alsa
= Other =
* acerhk: small kernel module, i686-only, no new releases, hassle
free, just relbump
* freemind: unvaluable mind-mapper, still waiting for the much
anticipated 0.9.0, which will most likely arrive with Godot. Easy.
* gnormalize: how to kill the unix do-one-thing-n-do-it-well paradigm
in one shot. Optdepends hell #2
* gourmet (OOD): a recipe manager. Not that I can cook.
* mldonkey: a p2p app for the edonkey network, gave me a few head
scratches for the rc script.
* opcion: a nice font viewer written in java, unmaintained but
working very well.
* rss-glx: 3d screen-savers, usually gives a few problems with
.desktop files. See http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18300
* scite (OOD): small text editor with some nice features, could be
more friendly.
* solfege (OOD): piece of cake! Frequent point releases, the
development branch is stable, but I don't remember why I switched to
it back in the day.
* stress (OOD): small unix utility, clean and easy.
* timidity-freepats: hasn't seen a release in ages and probably will
be around forever. Zero maintenance, nice to have in repos. Could be
ported to -any.
* vlock: small unix utility, clean and easy.
* wavegain: small util, optdepend for gnormalize
* xsensors (OOD): X11 sensor viewing util
Adopted scite, stress, and vlock... will take others depending on the need for
maintainers after
others have had a chance. You will be missed, and we'll keep a seat for you
should you decide
to return in the future. Best of luck!

In the last few months I haven't been able to keep up with my duties, and I feel that resigning is the best thing I can do at the moment, since real life is taking much more time than there is in a day and I can't keep up with the high standards that Arch deserves. I'd like to thank each and everyone at the Arch team, this has been a fun ride and I learned a lot in these years. Hopefully I'll be back contributing someday, maybe not in the same way, but whatever. Surely I'll stick around, however, as much as my free time allows me. Buona fortuna nella vita! = AVR packages = The AVR family is badly in need of some love. The wonderful djgera did all the grunt work (see http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2010-March/008369.html), now someone just has to take these little guys and update them. As with every toolchain, though, there's quite a bit to catch up with, and a whole lot to learn. Not for the faint of heart. * avrdude (OOD) * avr-libc (OOD) * binutils-avr (OOD) * gcc-avr (OOD) Anyone TU that take/rebuild these packages, feel to free to ask me if have some questions/issues. Build order is: binutils-avr, gcc-avr and libc-avr. The avrdude is just like ohers packages. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi ( djgera ) http://www.djgera.com.ar KeyID: 0x1B8C330D Key fingerprint = 0CAA D5D4 CD85 4434 A219 76ED 39AB 221B 1B8C 330D

Le Sun, 31 Jan 2010 18:41:34 -0500, Jim Pryor lists+aur-gene...@jimpryor.net a écrit : I'm closely following Lua, and can help out with the luadoc, luafilesystem, and lualogging. luajit doesn't yet work on x86_64, which my machines are, and I haven't played with it at all, so I won't say I can help with that. Now I'm not a TU, and don't really have the time to take on TU responsibilities even if you trusted me! I'm just offering to help out, in case some TU is willing to adopt them but hesitates on account of lack of experience with Lua. Or if these were to go to AUR, then I could take them. The four Lua packages in AUR are graphics/plotting packages I don't use. Hopefully there's someone else who does. But if not, I could be a foster parent until someone comes along. I am also a Lua user, and as I was reading posts by the Arch Haskell team I thought maybe a project like that should be created for Lua. I would love to see a better support for it in Arch, and especially to see all of Kepler packaged (including Xavante). If other users on this list are interrested, please email me and maybe we could set up a user repository for lua modules... -- catwell

So unless someone with more time also needs them as makedepends I suppose I take them next week or so. Ronald

So I'm resigning as a Trusted User. I'd like to thank you all for giving me this outstanding opportunity and experience. Special thanks to hdoria, angvp, bardo, wonder, foutrelis, ornitorrincos, stefanhusmann, sergej, pierre and all you that helped me or worked with me on a package. I have a few packages at community. I hope you can adopt some of them. In special, I'd like to ask that if some TU uses OSS frequently, he adopts it, as this package may require some special care, being a driver package. Most of the users that ask help in the OSS IRC channel are Arch users, so we should have a good amount of OSS users. Regarding packages in unsupported, it would be nice if some TU could adopt virtualbox_bin. This package needs some care and it would be nice to merge bdheeman's dkms work (virtualbox-sun package) so the duplicates can be removed. Also it would be nice if someone could contact the VirtualBox developers (there is even an irc channel - #vbox) and offer to make this package official. I mean, they have a repository for debian-based and for redhat-based distributions, so maybe they could make an archlinux repository and offer directly there an official ready-to-install package if some help is offered to them. I will list below my community and unsupported packages to ease adoption. [community] - oss-related (oss, skype-oss) - djvu-related (djview4, pdf2djvu - pstreams) - lua-related (luadoc, luafilesystem, luajit, lualogging) - netsurf-related (netsurf - hubbub, libnsbmp, libnsgif, libparserutils) - latex-related (texmaker) [unsupported] - vbox-related (virtualbox_bin) - oss-related (xulrunner-oss) - electronics-related (alliance, chipmunksystem, logisim) - lua-related (iup, cd, im, gnuplot-luaterm) - ion3-related (ion-3, trayion) - djvu-related (gsdjvu) - irc-related (kvirc-svn, qirssi) - driver stuff (samsutools) - other stuff (chestnut-dialer, eresi-svn, python-mpmath, uspnet) By the number of votes, some of them can even go to community if some TU is interested. Packages virtualbox_bin-1, virtualbox_bin-2, virtualbox_bin-3_0 are legacy stuff requested by users to be left out. The netcfg-rt73 and qc-usb packages are legacy stuff that are probably useless nowadays, unless someone uses an old custom kernel. Best regards, Paulo Matias I've taken over texmaker, and will take over a few more if no one claims them. Best of luck and thanks for allyour work!
