A while back Andre Klapper and myself started an effort to clean up the svn repository by moving inactive modules to the archive. The goal at that time was both to ease the transition from cvs to svn and to get a cruft free svn server.
We started out by identifying the modules with no checkins in 1.5 years. For those modules we started sending out emails to whoever seemed like the person responsible for that module. This would be decided by first looking at the MAINTAINERS file, AUTHORS file and last option was to look at the last person to do a checkin. 23 responded that their module could be moved, a few asked that their module stay, but most of the time the email bounced or was not responded to. Olav recently set the svn-archive.gnome.org and started moving the modules that did not request to stay to that. Moving modules back and forth from the archive is no problem so if any of the modules listed here should have stayed please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] and they will be moved back. Please also check that the MAINTAINERS file has the correct email listed.
