I personally have several and would like to know if any activity * from my side is reqired. We will not reject an old PR just because of that. The conversion is simple so it won't be much trouble for committers to just fix them along the way. However, if you can read the handbook and submit (as a follow-up to the original) an updated version, that will be great. This is particularly true for version upgrades, as patches will most likely fail otherwise. (The change is around the DISTNAME/PKGNAME area.)
