1 Dear all,

3 The following packages are up for grabs:
4
5 media-video/rovclock

10 https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/media-video/rovclock
11

13 The primary question is, if it is worth to keep it in the tree:
14 The ebuild provides
15 "Overclocking utility for ATI Radeon cards"
16 which were produced till ~2005,
17
18 Cards reported to work:
19

22 Radeon 9000
23 Radeon 9100
24 Radeon 9500 (Pro)

27 Mobility FireGL T2
28 Mobility Radeon 9600 M10

35 If we want to keep this in the tree, it would be great, if a new
36 maintainer would simply stabilize
37 rovclock-0.6e-r1.ebuild
38 which is already EAPI=6
39 and delete the obsolete
40 rovclock-0.6e.ebuild

43 Best,
