I think that list would be very different for each person you ask; the
easiest thing to do is to just create the AppData file for the few
applications you are passionate about keeping and build a new package
for rawhide. I don't think making a list is going to be a productive
use of time, and would possibly take more time writing emails than
just writing the few AppData files we need.

I also think there's a distinction between "I think this package is
good" and "I care enough about this package to actually fix it".
Normally I'd argue "patches welcome" is a harmful thing to say, but
given how easy it is to write an AppData file and how many
provenpackagers there are in this case I think it's justified.

Richard.
