The problem is that we don't have a long term solution for packages
we
aren't allowed to redistribute.
Yes, I try maintain it , lpf it is an simply idea and code is not much
complicated, anyway I'd like join it with akmods , the main idea is
instead install rpms itself is use an private repo, that akmods/lpf
update it with fresh rpms .
About lpf-flash-plugin is probably to be removed also as you
don't
seem to maintain and there are now updated packages for both npapi
and
ppapi.
Here, my idea is do lpf-flash-player-ppapi [1] in parallel we mayremove
lpf-flash-plugin.

Personally I don't see the point to maintain that in our repos,
best
is to use adobe repos directly and avoid to dedicate a maintainer to
do a duplicate work.
when upstream have repo with rpms , the point is less objective , even
that we may improve rpm, for example force install freshplugin rpm
package.
About lpf-spotify (or java-oracle, or msfonts), as we don't have
a
permission to redistribute, it's still needed so far.
One could also ask spotify for a permission of redistribution.
Or we could also relax the policy as the spotify case isn't the same
as Adobe (which explicitly forbid public redistribution) and consider
that redistribution is permitted based on fact that none enforce the
redistribution restriction.
(there are arch packages in AUR at least
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/spotify/)
The last solution is probably to advertise the online player instead:
http://open.spotify.com
