Announcing this on main site as dedicated news entry is probably overkill? At least it would get some attention and potentially some new maintainer could be found this way ;-)? Not sure how many people are using those packages, but this is seriously disruptive. Anyone running on this, would probably appreciate to be aware of the situation ...
I think Sven should have used the arch-dev-public mail list, but it does not change the fact the current packages are hard to maintain and if no other developer or trusted user wants to pick it up, it will be dropped. Now, dropping does not mean deleting, they'll be moved to the AUR by Sven and subsequently orphaned, precisely to allow interested parties to pick it up and maintain it. News items are for things that require user attention and/or manual intervention. The gitlab package will continue working after it gets dropped, just won't be updated anymore until someone wishes to maintain it on the AUR. Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini
