6 months ago, I sent a mail looking for new maintainers on a bunch of my packages. I didn't get many takers, so here they are again. The sys- ones are getting base-system on them, per vapier's original suggestion.

For fwcrv, there's been a lurking endian bug for a while, but sometimes it works, sometimes it does - suspected that it might be slightly buggy fireware devices out there rather than the software itself. > Software, QEMU frontend: > app-emulation/qenv No pending bugs or verbumps.
