Orphaning of freemind and all my remaining Java packages

[Johannes Lips]

Hi all,

I finally came to the conclusion, that I no longer want to invest time 
and effort in keeping all my Java packages in good shape. I don't have 
the time anymore to unbundle all the bundled libraries and keep a dozen 
downstream patches to make it work.
freemind is close to a 1.0.0 release and I provided packages for that 
already in a small side repo [1].
There are also some review requests for additional libraries [2],[3].

So I will orphan the packages next week and will block them if no one 
applies for taking them over.

- freemind
- SimplyHTML
- jansi
- jansi-native
- jarbundler
- jibx
- xpp3

I hope someone will take good care of them.

Johannes

Ok, so I am going to orphan the remaining packages:
- SimplyHTML
- freemind

Perhaps someone is willing to pick them up.

I don't have that much time to spend on them at the moment, but I took
freemind and simplyHTML. Co-maintainers welcome

Im sorry to hear that... I always liked Freemind. But Im just a user,
so I cant help becoming a maintainer (I've never been a maintainer
btw), unless of course you have automated the repackaging process via
scripts.
