I would very much welcome a takeover of system-config-printer. It is
critical for it to be updated before the freeze; Otavio doesn’t have
time to deal with it and I don’t own a printer anymore. I would
appreciate commit access so that I can work on GNOME integration (e.g.
PolicyKit comes to mind) but that’s it.

IMHO python-cups shouldn’t be moved out of python-modules.

As for poppler, help is welcome, but since it is closely related to KDE
and GNOME I’d prefer if it could stay in pkg-freedesktop. I intend to
keep it up-to-date but there are also a lot of bugs and I don’t know
whether someone even reads them. 

Cheers,
