Hello,
there is a new version of dayplanner[1] since the 28th of March and the
package is marked as outdated since 08th of August and there's no
reaction from the maintainer.
I have a working PKGBUILD for the new version and I already added an
AUR package for perl-date-holidayparser[2], which is a dependency for
the new version, so it would be nice if a TU could disown it that I can
become the maintainer.
Did you email the maintainer and waited out the two weeks period?

I didn't email the maintainer, but the package has been flagged out of
date 2 weeks ago, so he also got an e-mail 2 weeks ago and didn't react
with a package update or at least a comment to explain why he can't
update.

You still have to email him/her personally per the rules of the AUR. I'm
not sure if the notification feature effects just the comments, or also the
out of date flag.
Sorry for top posting, gmail's client sucks on the phone.

The maintainer does get an email when a package is flagged, but there
_might_ be a good reason why it has not been updated. It's best to
send an email to be sure.

Well, there are more outdated packages from this maintainer[1], some of
them even with an updated PKGBUILD in the comments, but no comment from
the maintainer.
Anyway, I wrote an e-mail and I will wait for an answer, but I think
this is wasted time.

Write the maintainer a personal mail and if there hasn't been any
reaction in the next two weeks revive this thread and one of us TUs will
orphan it for you.
In the meantime you could post your PKGBUILD as a comment so other
users can use it too, also he/she can update it using that one.
Hello,
please disown dayplanner[1]. It's outdated since 8th of August 2012, I
mailed the maintainer on 22nd of August (two weeks ago), I got no
answer and I have already a PKGBUILD for the new version.
