Since I'm waiting doing nothing, I'm looking at the list of packages in G:F and starting to look at what we could move to G:C (the goal being to have them in Contrib) -- or drop them.
Nice! I went through your list quickly and sorted it into "drop" and "G-C" categories that I think would make sense. It probably warrants further discussion and input from more people.
So, list of stuff:
+ all the galago things: we don't even know if it's still working (note to self: this includes gnome-presence-applet) + bakefile: it seems it used to be required by webkit, but it's not anymore?
Don't know about these.
+ bombermaze: old game. Old. Did I say it's old? But probably fun. + conglomerate: an XML editor. Not really developed anymore. + giver: err, this didn't move lately, and last thing I heard about it is that it's not totally ready + glade: why do we keep the old unmaintained glade? + gnomeicu: most people will use pidgin or a telepathy-based client + gnome-reset: like gnome-blog
Drop. I don't think these are much use to anyone, and I don't think they ever will be.
+ eiciel: an ACL editor. I thought nautilus does this now? + fyre: a nice app, but, hrm, not really needed by many people + g-wrap: something related to guile. Not used by anything? + gDesklets: I'm unsure there, feedback welcome. + gbrainy: cool game, but not sure why it's here. + gnome-blog: handy I guess, but not for most people + gnome-commander: not a lot of people replace nautilus + gnome-themes-extras: maybe? Depends on the themes in there, I guess + gob2: tool for developers, but I don't think anything use it anymore + goobox: old sound-juicer competitor + gqview: we have eog + gthumb: a bit harder, but I think most people are happy with f-spot + libghttp: not used by anything? + libiptcdata: needed by gthumb only + libmcs: not used by anything? + mergeant: not really for end-users... > + tasque: is it still developed?
Move to G:C. Most of these are of some use to a small group of people, or are not polished/useful enough to be in G:F. I kind of want to drop some of these, but it's better to err on the safe side, I guess.
+ mozilla-bonobo: err. Bonobo?
