Hi, we received the proposal to add listing of orphaned packages by popularity in this merge request: https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/merge_requests/553 I find the idea valuable, but the approach (linking to wnpp.debian.net) is very different from what we already have in /devel/wnpp section (we build some lists ourselves with the wnpp.pl script [1], using the data gathered by the 1ftpfiles script from the cron repo [2]. [1] https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/blob/master/english/devel/wnpp/wnpp.pl [2] https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/cron/-/blob/master/parts/1ftpfiles Having a look at both the resulting listings that we provide in www.debian.org/devel/wnpp, and the ones provided in wnpp.debian.net, I think maybe we could review our old approach and remove most of the listings we were providing, and link to wnpp.debian.net instead. This of course would require changes in the wml files in /devel/wnpp section, the Makefiles, and the scripts in the cron repo. What do you think?
