So, with the `migration of the AUR to version 4 <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#AUR_4>`_, I looked at the 12 AUR packages I had created over the years which I have not looked at in a long, long time.

The list started out with:

- `chronicle <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chronicle/>`_ - A simple blog compiler written in Perl
- `perl-leocharre-basename <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-basename/>`_ - Very basic filename string and path operations such as ext and paths
- `perl-leocharre-cli2 <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-cli2/>`_ - Some quick help for writing cli scripts
- `perl-leocharre-debug <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-debug/>`_ - Debug subroutines
- `perl-leocharre-dir <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-dir/>`_ - Subroutines for general directory needs
- `perl-leocharre-strings <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-leocharre-strings/>`_ - Combines string procedures I frequently use
- `perl-string-prettify <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-string-prettify/>`_ - Subroutines to cleanup a filename and or garble for human eyes 
- `perl-wordpress-api <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-wordpress-api/>`_ - Management of Wordpress API objects. Inherits WordPress::XMLRPC and all its methods
- `perl-wordpress-cli <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-wordpress-cli/>`_ - Command line access to Wordpress
- `perl-wordpress-xmlrpc <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-wordpress-xmlrpc/>`_ - API to Wordpress XML RPC calls
- `usbmount <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/usbmount/>`_ - Automatically mount and unmount USB mass storage devices
- `xlhttp <http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xlhtml/>`_ - An Excel spreadsheet (.xls) and PowerPoint (.ppt) to HTML converter

In the end, I only kept *xlhttp* as I do not use the others anymore.  Surprisingly enough, only one of the packages (*chronicle*) was out of date.  I disowned all the others, so if you want,  you can pick them up.
