Packages looking for new (co)maintainers

[Peter Robinson]

I have a bunch of packages that I have aquired over the years, whether
that I originally packaged them, or I aquired them as things changed
and I then had a use for them. With various changes over the years and
changes in both my $dayjob and personal situation my spare time to
"maintain" random things has massively deminished and I've come to the
conclusion that it doesn't make sense for me to pretend I can still
maintain them to any level of basic expectations. So looking through
the list of packages I am listed as maintainer or admin, sorry if you
co-maintain something in this list but I'm sure it's more the merrier,
let me know (with your FAS) if you're interested in picking anything
in the list up and I'll (work out how to) add/reassign it to you.

* GNOME related:
clutter
clutter-gtk
clutter-gst
cogl
libchamplain
rest

* A UPnP stack, used (or at least used to be) by GNOME and others:
gssdp
gupnp
gupnp-av
gupnp-tools
gupnp-dlna
gupnp-igd
rygel

* Ancient gnome related (please retire or move the deps to copr already):
gamin
libglade2
libgnomecanvas
gnome-themes
ORBit2

* GTK VoIP client. Mostly dead upstream. Has explicit deps/tightly
coupled with opal/ptlib:
ekiga
opal
ptlib

* iOS/iMobiledevice - Apple iDevice support:
ifuse
libplist
libusbmuxd
libimobiledevice
usbmuxd

* Random / no idea TBH:
libfakekey (kde-connect-libs)
icon-slicer
telepathy-mission-control
loudmouth

A list of packages that I still have an interest in but would
appreciate a co-maintainer:
dotconf
festival-freebsoft-utils
speech-dispatcher
flite
csound

I can help out with flite, although I can't promise I'll put a lot of
time into it. My FAS is thofmann.

Kind regards,

clutter-gst was retired in f29, do you mean clutter-gst3?

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/clutter-gst/c/643e4073349ba53e1d70ef68...

Doesn't gnome require libchamplain, cogl, clutter-gst3 and clutter-gtk for sushi?

No but it was probably just in my list and I didn't note it was retired.

yes, that's why they're listed as "GNOME related"

I can pick all of the GNOME related packages up, but I'd much prefer if 
the primary contact was someone else would could do a better job at 
responding to issues in bugzilla etc.

Thanks Peter for taking care of them for such a long time!

These should probably be retired, agreed.

hadess maybe wants these? I think he may be taking care of them in RHEL 
anyway.
