The shutdown is in two weeks.
One can see clearly a drop of broken ebuilds after the first mail on the
mailinglist and after the personal mail on 2016-11-24. [1] Thank you all
for fixing so many ebuilds already.
But still 400 ebuilds use googlecode.

56 of these do not have a maintainer.

How should we proceed now?

Should we lastrite all unmaintained packages and generate bugtickets for
the maintained ebuilds?

Who has experience with automatic generation of bugtickets and could
write a script for this? The tickets should block the main ticket [2].
