Before we branch for Fedora 18, as is custom, we will block currently
orphaned packages and packages that have failed to build since Fedora 16.

The following packages are currently orphaned, or fail to build. If
you have a need for one of these packages, please pick them up.
If no one claims any of these packages, they will be blocked before
we branch for Fedora 18. That is currently scheduled to happen on
or around August 7th.

Note that if you're receiving this mail directly, it's because you are
a co-maintainer of one of these packages. Please work with your
comaintainers to take up maintenance.
