1 Hello!
2
3 It turns out that I don't have enough time to maintain these packages any more:
4
5 Has reverse dependencies:
6 * dev-db/oracle-instantclient (no fetch restriction any more)
7
8 Obsolete, updating revdeps not initiated yet:
9 * dev-db/oracle-instantclient-basic
10 * dev-db/oracle-instantclient-jdbc
11 * dev-db/oracle-instantclient-odbc
12 * dev-db/oracle-instantclient-sqlplus
13
14 No reverse dependencies:
15 * dev-db/tora (has one proxy maintainer left)
16 * mail-mta/nullmailer (has one maintainer left)
17 * net-libs/openmq-cclient
18 * net-misc/mico
19
20 For Windows based Prefix, as there is no more Prefix developer
21 having access to Windows machines:
22
23 For Cygwin only - which may drop in favor of WSL:
24 * app-admin/cygwin-rebase
25 * sys-libs/cygwin-crypt
26
27 For native Windows using MSVC, needs either Cygwin or WSL:
28 * dev-libs/pthreads4w
29 * sys-devel/parity (a live build dep has dropped already)

31 Thanks!
