1 Due me recently taking xsane due it being not fixed/updated for a long
2 time, I noticed its maintainer was in devaway since 2010 September.
3
4 Maybe they should be pinged and retired if no reply is received like
5 done with other cases. What do you think? :-/
6
7 That people that seems to be inactive for a long time look to be the
8 following:
9 http://dev.gentoo.org/devaway/
10
11 battousai -> Already in retirement process (but looks stalled since end
12 2010, not sure why, probably retirement team didn't have time?) ->
13 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34864
14
15 blackace -> not sure about his current status, looks like he will move
16 to staffer per https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45816 , in that
17 case, maybe his devaway status could be removed.
18
19 falco -> doesn't seem to be active for a long time
20
21 fox2mike -> the same case
22
23 markusle -> already handled in
24 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105599
25
26 mrpouet -> https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=266794
27
28 phosphan -> looks to be unavailable for some months :-/
29
30 tanderson -> Looks to not have committed for a long time, but I think he
31 had other responsibilities in Gentoo (maybe the same applies to other
32 people listed here)
33
34 titefleur -> already handled in
35 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195714
36
37 vorlon -> looks to not have committed everything to the tree since 2010

41 As some people are already being retired (like mrpouet), I thought that
42 would be interesting to start dropping them from metadatas of packages
43 they maintain, moving them to their respective herds or to
44 maintainer-needed (after sending a mail to gentoo-dev announcing what
45 packages are up to grabs). I can do this if you want.
46
47
48 There are also some devaway entries that could probably be updated or
49 removed by affected developers :-/

51 Best regards and thanks for taking care.
