</I>>><i> Hi,
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Could you please drop alexandria please ?
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> 1) Alexandria is not maintained upstream anymore
</I>>><i> <A HREF="http://alexandria.rubyforge.org/">http://alexandria.rubyforge.org/</A>
</I>>><i> “New features and future development are being carried out in a separate
</I>>><i> project called Palatina. It’s a complete re-write, and is currently at
</I>>><i> an early stage of functionality. If you’re intersted in helping the
</I>>><i> project, or following it’s progress, you can subscribe to the
</I>>><i> palatina-devel mailing-list or check out the wiki.”
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> 2) There’s a rewrite of it, but it’s not active since last september.
</I>>><i> see git clone <A HREF="git://code.gnostai.org/git/palatina.git">git://code.gnostai.org/git/palatina.git</A>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> 3) Alexandria uses ruby-libglade2, which is not part of ruby-gnome2
</I>>><i> anymore since version 0.90.6 (we have 0.90.8)
</I>>><i> see <A HREF="http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/980605">http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/980605</A>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> To make a long story short, I don’t think it’s worth keeping it. We
</I>>><i> would have an unmaintained software, based on unmaintained libraries, so
</I>>><i> I’m in favor of dropping alexandria.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Regards,
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I take care of removing it

Done
