Hi there

We use fcron a lot at ${work} so I've also added myself to the project in an
attempt to help out with fcron-related bugs.

Jason, much appreciated.  Also thanks Michal for noticing that cron
needed love.

I just updated the SELinux patch on vixie-cron and stabilized it a while
ago, it works fine and doesnt need all that much maintenance. I vote
keep it, i'll look after it. If it has some big architectural issues
later then we can last-rite it but its been reliable so far.

I added myself to the Cron project with blueness.

Okay a followup on my last email, I added myself to the project and will
try to take care of all cron packages.

My understanding is that vixie-cron is no longer maintained and sys-
process/cronie is the drop-in replacement that is now also suggested as
the default cron in the handbook.

I seem to recall a more recent discussion about this as well, but can't
find it at the moment.

Perhaps it is time to mask vixie-cron for removal?

Those are very important packages.  I use fcron and at and I can help
take care of those.  I should probably take a look a t cronbase and
virtual/cron too.

[gentoo-dev] Projects up for grabs: cron, m68k

2017-12-20 Thread Michał Górny 
Hello, everyone.

Due to prolonged inactivity of Mike Frysinger (vapier), the following
projects have had effectively no members for 6 months already:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Cron

  sys-process/anacron [m]
  sys-process/at
  sys-process/bcron
  sys-process/cronbase
  sys-process/cronie [m]
  sys-process/dcron
  sys-process/fcron [m]
  sys-process/vixie-cron
  virtual/cron

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:M68k

  sys-apps/zorroutils [m]
  sys-fs/atari-fdisk

The packages listed with '[m]' have other maintainers. The remaining
packages are solely maintained by the listed projects.

If you are interested in helping out with some of those packages, please
consider joining the appropriate project and/or co-maintaining the
individual packages.

If the projects see no activity within the next month, I will disband
them and move the appropriate packages to maintainer-needed.
