[gentoo-dev] Google Code shutdown requires 524 ebuilds to be fixed before end of 2016

[Jonas Stein]

Dear all,

Google announced in 2015 to close the "Google Code" repositories [1].

They will provide the repositories in read only state till end of 2016.

Today we have still 524 ebuilds with SRC_URI=*googlecode* in the tree
[2] and should get these fixed before end of 2016.

If you maintain one of these packages, please fix the SRC_URI and
HOMEPAGE variables.

We have also a wiki page [3] and thanks to Andreas Huettel we can
monitor our daily effort in a plot [4].
