+<p><strong>Orphaned Packages.</strong> 14 packages were orphaned last month and

+thanks to the previous maintainers who contributed to the Free Software
+community.  Please see the <a href="$(HOME)/devel/wnpp/">WNPP pages</a> for
+the full list, and please add a note to the bug report and retitle it to ITA:
+if you plan to take over a package.  To find out which orphaned packages are
