I'm CC'ing existing herds and maintainers on my best knowledge.

graphics@gentoo.org: could you take care of media-gfx?
mkennedy@gentoo.org: could you take a look at dev-lisp and lisp and move them to common-lisp if appropriate?
kde@gentoo.org: there's one kde-other package in the list.
mysql-bugs@gentoo.org: could you set up a mysql herd? i guess mysql-bugs is a bad name for a herd.
scheme@gentoo.org: could you take care of dev-scheme?
web-apps@gentoo.org: could you take a look at the last two, net-www and www-apps?
xemacs@gentoo.org: the xemacs herd does not exist, could you set it up?
Comment 1 Sven Wegener gentoo-dev 2005-06-02 18:00:44 UTC
app-dicts@gentoo.org: there's one dicts package in the list.
pda@gentoo.org: there's one app-pda package in the list.
robbat2@gentoo.org: dunno if convmv might belong to the text-markup herd?
seemant@gentoo.org/guilc@fr.st: app-office/grisbi, there's no office herd.
Comment 2 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-06-03 02:05:39 UTC
convmv and all mysql stuff fixed.
Comment 3 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-06-03 02:06:22 UTC
definetly bedtime if I'm forgetting to check the remove CC box.
Comment 4 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-03 02:48:09 UTC

Comment 7 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-27 07:55:15 UTC
web-apps done
Comment 8 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-15 18:48:11 UTC
We still don't have an xemacs herd.  Looks like it is just tove on the xemacs alias as well.

emacs:  Do you guys want to take care of xemacs stuff as well?  Or is it all currently unmaintained?

It would be nice to get some people together to maintain that stuff, and also to fill in the metadata appropriately for all of the packages under app-xemacs that don't have metadata.
Comment 9 Matthew Kennedy (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-15 22:30:53 UTC
The xemacs ports are basically unmaintained.  I'll help xemacs if its security but in general, the emacs herd does not have enough resources to maintain both.
Comment 10 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-12 19:30:26 UTC
Please assign these to the correct herd, create the herd, or no-herd them please.  I'm adding everyone onto this that seems to be associated with one of these packages.  So, if you are on this bug, please check to make sure one of these packages doesn't belong to you.

rdesktop's done
Comment 12 Charlie Shepherd (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-09-17 10:21:54 UTC
*** Bug 147960 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 13 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-30 21:46:15 UTC
I remove emacs herd, as there are no packages for us here.  xemacs herd will have a maintainer soon and can take care himself.
Comment 14 Kathryn Kulick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-31 05:39:02 UTC
jimmac-xcursors and gartoon both fixed.
Comment 15 Hans de Graaff gentoo-dev Security 2006-11-05 05:12:47 UTC
I've added the xemacs herd to herds.xml
Comment 16 Steve Dibb (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-04 09:23:59 UTC
fixed in cvs
Comment 17 Steve Dibb (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-04 09:27:28 UTC
reopening since its a metabug I guess, removing CCs, readd yourself if you like. :)
Comment 18 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-04 11:53:26 UTC
If there are no more non-existant herds, let's just close this.

It's simpler to open a single bug when something is found though.
