                   independent comic creators!"

While these are still viable packages for the Gentoo Portage tree it appears these ebuilds are lacking in community interest. If you (or another user) are still wanting this to make it into the Portage tree please let us know! It would be additionally helpful (but not required) if you were willing to help out with the package by becoming its proxied maintainer; you have already done most of the work for this task. Gentoo even has a dedicated team[1] for assisting users in becoming proxied maintainers. If you are interested in maintaining this package, please contact proxy-maint@gentoo.org or join #gentoo-proxy-maint on Freenode IRC.

If this bug remains silent without further comments for 30 days i will close it with the resolution of WONTFIX. Beyond that the bug can always be reopened to get this package back on track for the Gentoo Portage tree.
