There was 1 request via the ML and 2 from the forum including one today. I
don't know if the users who use these packages don't know about packaging
or it's because I wrote that most of these orphans  will end up in
unsupported anyway.

I also think that a lot of these orphans had very few votes when they were
initially added to community.  For this reason, we should be careful and
try not to put low votes packages in community because once they get
orphaned, it's very hard to find another TU interested in them.
