The above are packages that I cannot justify spending hours looking into 
why a new release doesn't build; the reason for this is that I simply 
don't use them anymore and my original goals of seeding Cygwin with 
plenty of X packages has been reached.  However, I will respond to 
problems in the packaging of the above, I just won't package new releases.

It would be best that someone take over the above packages, but I don't 
think that they should be pulled if that doesn't happen since the 
current versions are perfectly useable and I'm still willing to fix the 
current versions.

Does that help?

Harold
