Hi guys,

I'm the pino maintainer on Fedora. I'm extremely disappointed with the 
pino upstream development, looks like it was abandoned.

Unfortunately I'm not a vala developer and I can't maintain pino without 
a great support from upstream (there are a lot of open bugs without some 
action by upstream [1]

I'd like to remove pino from default F15 installation for while, and if 
the upstream project increase the quality of pino we can put it back in 
future releases.
