TigerVNC seems to be rather popular in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29633

TightVNC hasn't been updated in about 6 months, but is still very much used. Is there a reason both can't be available?

Tigervnc looks like an active fork of tightvnc.

Thanks for making us aware of this issue. However, this isn't really a feature request for tightvnc, and may be better framed as a request to aur-general, asking if someone would move tigervnc from AUR to [community].
I'll consider moving tightvnc to AUR and also consider moving tigervnc from AUR.
