Uhm, if owners.list doesn't list the package owner as being

  extras-orphan at fedoraproject.org

and if the Wiki page doesn't list the package as being orphaned either,
it is extremely bad form to perform sort of a "hostile take-over" without
mentioning in the CVS commit comment that this is in accordance with the
current package owner.

: -Fedora Extras|openal|Open Audio Library|andreas.bierfert at lowlatency.de|extras-qa at fedoraproject.org|
: +Fedora Extras|openal|Open Audio Library|andreas.bierfert at lowlatency.de|Jochen at herr-schmitt.de|

The fourth field is the package owner, not the fifth field. The 5th field
is a placeholder QA address.
