I've orphaned all my packages, I don't have a Fedora install with which to do package development anymore aside that my cvs access is utterly busted which I just don't have the nerves to mess with anymore. Time has come to admit that I am just not that passionate about Fedora anymore and that I at least need a long break.

The cute innocent little packages in question are:

webkit-sharp - C# webkit bindings.
monsoon - Bittorrent client written in C# using GTK# and MonoTorrent.
mono-nat - NAT handling support for Mono.
banshee-mirage - The famed Mirage extension for Banshee, does spectrum analysis and makes cool playlists of similar songs for you.

There is one patch for webkit-sharp sitting in bugzilla which I haven't commited yet. I would suggest that someone interested in Banshee take webkit-sharp at least as it is required for the 1.5.x series. The patch adjusts the .so version we require and is required on F11 and above for wekbit-sharp to function. This package will require paying attention to the heads up messages from the webkit maintainer (Peter Gordon - a nice guy, I promise) and if the so version is bumped then the patch needs updating.

monsoon and mono-nat pretty much go hand in hand, upstream is very friendly and tends to handle bugreports well. These are a very low weight packages which shouldn't add much to the bugload of it's owner, updates are fairly rare and easy to handle.

banshee-mirage is a very nice addition to the great Banshee we all know and love, it's low maintenance and upstream is very good at handling bugs. This package might be merged into banshee main at some point.

Additionally there are some patches sitting in bugzilla for ndesk-dbus(-glib) from the Sugarlab guys, they need to be rebased for fuzz but they fix datastore problems they encountered in their work. It would be nice if someone could put in 10 mins of work to get those patches commited. The reportedly need this in F11 so it would be nice to let the patches simmer in rawhide for a while then unless issues arise issue the fix to our stable platforms as well.
