Looks like Ian got torque already, but he may appreciate some help.  For the
other packages, I'm more then happy to proxy maintain them for you.  Just send
any patches my way (including a first one to add you as a maintainer :)

The empi documentation did get moved over to the wiki [1].  However, it's pretty
much the exact same thing you're seeing in the guidexml page.  I know there were
some HPC sites using it in the past, but I haven't heard from anyone lately.
That could mean no one is using it, or that everything is working as expected.
