Hi Peter, I can see that three out of the five packages you list were last updated in May and are no longer marked out-of-date. This means that for those three packages at least, there's no reason for disowning. Also, you mention that you were referred to the Arch-Haskell mailing list. If you posted there, can you provide a link to your opening message? I'd be interested to see what replies you got. I apologize if your requests seem to go unfulfilled, but --to me at least-- the situation with arch-haskell and the AUR is a bit unclear, so I'm not sure what action should be taken. Cheers.
