Hi all,

No I'm not leaving or anything like that. But keeping 200+ packages in top 
condition is taking quite a large chunk of time (duh). So I'm looking for 
fellow contributers who want to become the maintainer of a few (100 or so :) 
packages of mine to lighten my load.

I'll stick around as co-maintainer for quite a few of them, others which I've 
only picked up to stop them from becoming orphaned, I probably will withdraw 
myself from completely.

Here is a short list of packages which gets upstream updates at regular 
intervals, and thus bring the most work with them, and thus I would _really_ 
like to see a new maintainer for:

     * boswars -- Bos Wars is a futuristic real-time strategy game
     * childsplay -- Suite of educational games for young children
     * childsplay_plugins -- Plugins for childsplay (educational games for 
young children)
     * gcompris -- Educational suite for kids 2-10 years old
     * ogre -- Object-Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine
     * scorched3d -- Game based loosely on the classic DOS game Scorched Earth
     * stormbaancoureur -- Simulated obstacle course for automobiles
     * vavoom -- Enhanced Doom, Heretic, Hexen and Strife source port

With that said note that any package below is fair game!
