new TalkingArch maintainers

[Mike Ray]

Chris,

On behalf of myself and quite a few of the folks from my raspberry-vi 
community, thanks very much for your work on Talking Arch and for 
sharing it with us.

I knew nothing of Arch Linux before I bought a Pi, and after coming to 
like Arch very much it was great to find your talking version for the 
desktop.  I now use Talking Arch on both platforms and the desktop 
version is a great environment for cross-compiling for ARM.

Long live Talking Arch.

Mike
