Yes, I'm willing to proxy maintain app-portage/ufed. The sources are available from overlays.gentoo.org. See http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/ufed.git;a=summary. Initially, you would need to send me patches or point me to your copy of the project to pull from. However, once I'm comfortable with your work, I can grant direct access to the project for pushing commits. If you do want to proxy maintain it, please send me in private email, the email address that you use in Gentoo's bugzilla, so I can update the metadata.xml file appropriately. Regards, Paul

I still need to go through and reassign any bugs for these packages. I'm going to hold off on app-portage/ufed since there is interest in it being proxy maintained. Regards, Paul

The SF page files releases doesn't list the 0.4.4 that we have in tree. It stops at 0.4.3 hmm. I just emerged it, seems slyfox is maintaining it's dep of dev-util/bdelta which has had a release just this last June. But it's homepage link is the same dead deltup.org one. It is from the same author. The SF deltup pages only have files releases up to 0.1.0 (dated 2006) for bdelta. app-portage/epm Nothing app-portage/maintainer-helper I looked at it, installed it, but had to fix a small bug just to get it to run. Outside of that I heard from no-one about it. For me, it would be easier to add the few capabilities that were actually coded to porthole than to learn the code and pyQT to develop it, since the data it provided and displayed, porthole already displays and more. IMHO tree-clean it app-portage/splat it's perl :(, I don't do perl. The homepage link is dead. Only the base net address is alive and is just a resume for the author. I heard nothing. app-portage/ufed Several users provided some patches to update it for the make.conf and profiles changes. It has been updated in tree. If no one steps up in the next 30 days, I will be moving them out of the herd and to maintainer-needed and they will be candidates for the treecleaners.
