You should "adopt" the package and become the new maintainer, perhaps.

Hi Everyone,
A couple of years ago, I raised an issue I had encountered with the arcs
package (see below for the complete run of messages). A solution was proposed
by Michael Sharpe and Joseph Wright wrote that he would mention the issue on
c.t.t., as messages to arcs' author bounced. The solution, which I add manually
to arcs.sty is:
"The arcs package depends on the relsize package which did change a few months
ago in a way that requires a small change in the arcs package. You need to add
the line (just after \RequirePackage{relsize} is a good place}
\long\def \@gobblethree #1#2#3{}
and then change the line
\let \rs@size@warning = \@gobbletwo
to
\let \rs@size@warning = \@gobblethree
because, in relsize.sty, the macro \rs@size@warning is now defined to have
three arguments, the last of which (6.0pt) was being left as printable text.
This problem is a LaTeX issue and has nothing particular to XeTeX."
The arcs package was never updated and the issue persists. Is there anyway
these changes could be incorporated into arcs.sty? I use arcs quite often and
it would be a great help if the changes could become part of the code.
Many thanks and best wishes,
Arash

Message to the arcs author bounced. I'll raise this on c.t.t.: the
package is LPPL so a change can be sorted out if he can't be found.
