I think that it will be not much more supported when it will be in community and I think it can be in community becouse it have much more votes than community requests and many archlinux peapole use it as they main kernel. What about external modules? I think that you by this understand nvidia driver right? I was thinking about this and this package can be maintrained by the same TU. Thanks.

Ok thanks Xavier for testing.Now let's go!
About dwm-git we can delate this package if not offical repos are not
allowed.
grub2-git can be delated too becouse the git repo is down.
glib2-newest is needed to compile libsoup-git (see comments).
kernel26-bfs - About this 300 relase we have voting on kernel26-bfs page
what to do to change one variable in PKGBUILD and aplly new patch and most
votes was for bumping pkgrel ;)
xorg-server-git - I disable many things to stripe things down if someone
like to have more things he can enable it in PKGBUILD.
I will post conflict with xorg-server ;)
And sorry about this poor quality PKGBUILDS.
I think now I have no chanches for being a TU sadly :(

Hello Laszlo thanks for some testing about this licenses I don't include
them in my PKGBUILD because they are autodetecting by AUR but if it's needed
Tommorow I will include them in PKGBUILD and update them on AUR.
And about xextproto-git when I building it , it need newest version of
inputproto ;)
Thanks.
