It's over two weeks now so I will start the cleanup when I have time. I |
| 22 |
will leave packages that I think are used widely to be last so |
| 23 |
maintainers of those still have time to do things on their own. I have |
| 24 |
exams coming next week so it will probably take a while for me to |
| 25 |
process the list. Here's the people/packages that wanted to be excluded |
| 26 |
from the list: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
GNOME |
| 29 |
gstreamer |
| 30 |
gnuplot |
| 31 |
hkBst |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
If I forgot someone, please slap me around a bit with a large trout. |
