Excuse me for asking but is there anything preventing you from moving
cairo-xcb to community if you become a TU?

Yes, us.

As far as i know if you become a TU you can maintain anything you want
that has more than 10 votes in the AUR.

Becoming a TU means that you become a member in the developement team, a
team in which we trust each other, respect each other decisions, use the
same packaging standards, the same tools as developers etc.

I think if the package meets the guidelines then you shouldn't bully
someone into not maintaining it. As long as he's providing the support
that should suffice. Sometimes we may need to adjust the guidelines, and
we decide this as a group through a formal vote.

Seriously? Since when is adding a package that is already in the repos
with a different configure flag a good idea? We don't even allow this
in the AUR...

Seriously. While it's not ideal, it has been done.
I would consider it the same as including bin/lib32 packages just to
include things like wine or whatever. The [community] repo is intended
for this kind of experimentation and freedom.

I think awesomewm has enough of a user base to justify such measures if
a TU is willing to maintain it.


While are you at this add firefox/thunderbird cairo system support. It has enough user base and a lot of complains about fonts that are not consistent with system, doesn't matter if firefox/tb is broken.

We can do this </sarcasm>

I'm starting to get a bit peeved with people confusing [community] and
[unsupported] with the [core] and [extra] bits.
