I am assuming the popularity of these packages is going to rise. The newcomer glava-git alone got most of its popularity last week iirc, and i'm expecting more over the next couple as development continues & awareness increases. I definitely don't plan to publish unused/unpopular packages to [community].

Right. I don't plan to promote any of my AUR packages without reason. Regards, Rob
