Re: [gentoo-dev] new category+herd proposal: app-backup

[Robin H. Johnson]

I've created the bugzilla account now, and given it all of the bugs.

Rough planned timeline:
now+1 week - create existing category, move existing packages.
now+3 weeks - try to fix existing package bugs.
now+7 weeks - See about adding new packages slowly.

Would all of the above maintainers please chime in with information on
how they want to handle their package with the move to app-backup?
I haven't seen some of these folk in a long time, and I don't know if
they are still active.

Also, who amongst you would like to join app-backup to help with
maintaining these packages? Other developers are welcome as well, and
I've got a few bugzilla submitters in mind as possible recruits.
