Tomorrow, March 1, is the deadline for removing almost all of the
Zope/Plone packages from the portage tree (those who still want them
can get them from Arfrever's Progress overlay).
Since only one or two packages would remain in the category, do we
want the category to stay around, or should it be removed from the
tree? We could move the remaining packages to dev-python.
Similarly, there is an empty herd. Do we have a procedure for
end-of-lifeing herds?
Cheers,
Dirkjan

You can see here how we dropped a herd last time from retirement:

Arfrever pinged me to add him to the net-zope herd as a proxy
maintainer for the remaining zope packages. Are there any objections
to this?

What remaining packages? Just zope-fixers, zope-interface and zc-buildout?
I don't think that would be helpful.
