Hi Josh,

Your help would be very welcome.
There is a list of package that have no maintainer at:
<A HREF="http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/data/unmaintained.txt">http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/data/unmaintained.txt</A>

If you wish to become a packager, we have a very successful apprenticeship
program: just follow the instructions at
<A HREF="http://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager">http://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager</A>

and come join us at #mageia-mentoring on freenode.

Cheers,
