Hi all,

Very sorry for the delay on processing this request. I have now EOL'd
stable/mitaka branches for projects listed in [1].

If there are any mistakes it should be possible to restore the branch at
the correct position. Similarly please let me know if there were any
projects that should have been EOL'd but missed out.

Cheers,
Josh
