Over a hundred packages with anthraxx listed as the maintainer have been flagged out of date: https://archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=&maintainer=anthraxx&flagged=Flagged Many open bug reports are assigned to him too: https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?dev=17958 (In the past, bug reports with the [security] tag were automatically co-assigned to him, even if he wasn't the maintainer. Nevertheless many of these are specifically assigned to him and valid, including currently missing security updates.) Everyone's a volunteer and people have lives. Got it. Now what can we do to fix this situation? Can there be a group effort to take over some of the packages and get them in shape again? Regular users like me can't commit to the repo, TUs can only work in the [community] repo, and developers are all busy doing their own maintainer work.
