Orphaning gnome-chemistry-utils, bodr and chemical-mime-data and stepping down as goffice and gnumeric co-maintainer

[Julian Sikorski]

Hi list,

as I have not used gnome-chemistry-utils myself in years, I have decided 
to finally orphan it. While upstream is dead since the lead developer 
has retired from professional life, the package has been relatively easy 
to keep running. The only issue is the versioned gnumeric plugin, 
meaning a rebuild every gnumeric update.
I am also going to orphan the dependencies and step down as gnumeric and 
goffice co-maintainer.

Best regards,
Julian

Hi Julian,

Thank you for the work you've put into this over the years.
I have taken gnome-chemistry-utils, bodr and chemical-mime-data. I am
using the calculator almost daily and sometimes the spectrum and
structure viewers.

Antonio, will you be able to lend a hand if need be?


Happy new year everybody,
A.
