At the moment I don't. When I announced the project it got a good
reaction, so I carried on with it, but after a while creating and
providing desktop files through the bug tracker I started receiving
the "upstream problem" answer. This has become pretty frequent, so
lately I haven't been doing very much on the Arch side. The few
developers I tried to contact didn't do anything, so I suppose there's
little to no interest from them.

The whole thing has started to become more frustrating than anything,
so at the moment I'm not working on it anymore.
