Please make sure to read the bug mail from the bug tracker and reply to

Comment 1 Sven Eden 2017-10-06 13:08:13 UTC
Thanks a lot, I think maintainer bugs are a great way of keeping information available and fast.

Currently I proxy maintain the following packages:

- app-portage/ufed
- dev-games/ogre
- sci-misc/boinc

Currently my spare time is a bit restricted until the end of next week, but I am basically available. Although maybe not as fast as I'd like. But that will change soon.
Comment 2 Sven Eden 2019-09-24 16:15:26 UTC
In the last 6 months I had a lot less time than I ever thought I have. My apologies for that.

Luckily this is changing now as a huge project at work comes to an end.

I hereby add to my list:

- dev-libs/aws-sdk-cpp

Luckily I need this at work, so I can do stuff on it there, too.

I don't have the impression that he is inactive, just waiting for review:

Comment 5 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2020-08-24 18:25:58 UTC
Pinged several times. There was no reply for 10 days on my mail about how to continue. Most tickets without reply, or just a note there is no time to fix it.
Tickets were open for years.

Thanks for all contributions to Sven Eden. You are invited to continue, but I suggest, you sign in as maintainer when you really have the time to look after the tickets of your packages.
You can contribute without being a proxied maintainer via PR as you find your time to do so.

Sorry, just found your E-Mail within a ton of spam mails. The question I put in my answer gets more pressuring it seems.
Can I change my e-mail address somehow? GMX is getting ridiculous.
Comment 7 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2020-08-26 17:12:24 UTC
Seems the situation was not as bad, as it looked, because you forgot to close bugs https://bugs.gentoo.org/638510 and there were open PR's since a very long time.

Without your reply and the numerous comments about the lack of time and tickets on stall I have to believe that you have not enough time to take care of the bugs.

For example this bug was assigned to you since 2012, you explained that you have no time https://bugs.gentoo.org/106815#c14

Yes, you can change your mail address in bugzilla preferences. Ask on IRC, if you get stuck.

You can continue to contribute with no limitation. 

If you have fixed your mail and have enough time assign your self as proxied maintainer to your selected packets with the next bugfix via PR. 

I am looking forward to your contributions either as 
proxied maintainer or as contributor via PRs (add Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/633138 in the comment).

If your PRs get no attention for a long period, please ping proxied maintainers on IRC.
Comment 8 Sven Eden 2020-08-31 08:06:19 UTC
Thanks alot for your patience and helpful tips.

I am currently sorting out where to start first, and have begun branch organization as you suggested.

If that's ok for you I'll change the maintainer entry back with the upcoming PRs.
Comment 9 Sven Eden 2020-12-15 08:58:07 UTC
Update 2020-12-15

This is the current status of the packages I maintain:


app-portage/ufed
-> Currently the package is listed as "Maintainer needed". I will update metadata.xml once I fixed some pending issues.


acct-group/boinc
acct-user/boinc
sci-misc/boinc
-> Bump PR waiting. I use BOINC regularly and will keep this updated.


dev-games/ogre
-> I forgot to put myself into metadata.xml, but will do with the next update.
-> 1.12.10 got released
-> OGRE-next 2.2.x (Cerberus) needs an ebuild. (I am highly interested in that particular one, as I want to use it on a private project.)
-> reverse dependencies, particularly with OpenCV (and?) are still fishy.


dev-libs/aws-c-cal
dev-libs/aws-c-common
dev-libs/aws-c-event-stream
dev-libs/aws-checksums
dev-libs/aws-c-io
dev-libs/aws-sdk-cpp
dev-libs/s2n
-> We have a few AWS projects at work. Yes, I am allowed to run Gentoo on my company laptop. :)
-> Several pending PRs and discussions going on


dev-libs/ustr
-> Idles around... No update for years, and I doubt, that there will be any more.
-> Only <sys-libs/libsemanage-3.1 depend on this package, and 3.1 is stable.
-> Once <sys-libs/libsemanage-3.1 got cleaned up, dev-libs/ustr could be last-rited. (Personally I do not use it any more.)
