This package still exists. I'll delete the package completely and then remove
the  lines

www-apache/mod_dav_svn makes no sense to keep when dev-util/subversion already 
comes with it, I agree. 
 
mask for www-apps/mediawiki-1.3.8: gets removed ASAP I'm on my box. 
 
regarding the masks for: 
    =net-www/mod_auth_mysql-20030510 (<-- still exists) 
    =net-www/mod_auth_mysql-20030510-r1 
    =net-www/mod_auth_mysql-20030510-r2 
Well, hollow removed them w/o cleanup up the p.mask; I can do so ASAP I am back 
on my box. 

done; unexpectly faster than I thought ;) 

removed dbh from p.mask

Removed xeasyconf from portage.

mysql-4.0.24-r2 - fixed
progsreiserfs - not fixing. this exists to prevent old installs from causing 
problems, and should continue to exist for a while longer - i've gotten some 
bugs via email with people running into it still.
nss_ldap-233 - fixed

Everything in your list comment #0 with solar@g has been removed from p.mask

My items zapped.

Ditto.

corrected

(stuart: can we remove this?)

Removed (I am the maintainer now as well) - new upstream version committed to
cvs earlier.

removed gphoto and qce-ga

my entry (dyndnsupdate) kindly removed for me by marienz.

removed my entries

The mentioned security related packages I masked are removed.

Maybe someone ought to rerun the scrip, or simply close this bug ?

cardoe/QA: could you please update the list and see if this bug needs to stay
open?

Well, a while back I went through package.mask using a script I wrote and
removed a bunch of useless masks. See this mailing list thread for more
information: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/43477

Anyhow, I just went through another round of that, and according to my script,
these are the only useless masks remaining:

=media-libs/faad2-2.5
=app-crypt/mhash-0.9.7.1
sys-libs/libspe
>=dev-perl/AxKit-1.7
>=sys-apps/dbus-core-0.92
>=dev-db/mysql-5.1

Can we just have it mail the affected people?  As much as I hate web-appy
things it may be nicer to just script the entire thing (as far as notifcation,
not removal).

MySQL masks are ok, the 5.1 mask must stay there since we're experimenting with
it atm.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

Remove CC, sorry for the noise.

Removed.

=dev-util/scons-0.96.91 removed.

This bug is done?

With the recent junk cleanup session, it should, pretty much... until more
stale stuff gets stuck there. :)
