Sorry for this, but this should be fixable. I haven't understand why you
made such a trouble for this silly mistake I made...!?

Sorry, but I don't understand this. Christoph is my best friend in the
Fedora Project. He is sometimes a little bit stubborn and sometimes a
arrogant guy, but he is always fair and he has a open ear for everyone
and every problem and he always gives his best to deal justly.
He's like a modern Salomo and if you have a problem with Christoph, you
should discuss this with him directly, or add him to your ignore list
for continueing a noisefree maintaining of your stuff. Imho the fact
that you have a personal problem with anybody in the project isn't a
good reason for orphaning packages. It's your decision and I don't want
to disabuse you, but you turn down any help (Rudof Kastl known as Che
and Christoph Wickert and Sven Lankes, knwown as killefiz offers you
help) and you are not able to take crtism. Maybe this is the real reason
for this problem?!
Don't take anything (which is spoken to you) personally, it's just
business..... 

> If someone want to grab the packages, feel free.
Nobody wants this packages? Sad! I can't maintain the whole
enlightenment tree alone , because I haven't enough time and knowledge
base to handle this, although some friends offers me help to fix this.
I would take these packages again if there is a bunch of people who
tried to help me permanently, but I'm pessimistic of this. :-( It's very
sad, because enlightenment is a cool desktop and a real alternative to
other windowmanagers like the ugly openbox. LXDE for example works with
enlightenment and it's very cool to have a desktop that gives you such a
style without being a fat bitch :-p (Sorry Christoph, but you already
know my opinion)
