Yeah, I agreed last time [1] :S.
Feel free to vault the packages and remove it from the package list.
(I try to remember to also check that the packaging git repo history is
up to date before doing those steps, as well)
More generally, perhaps we need to clarify the policy on removing
unmaintained packages from a vague "may be pulled" in [2].
How about: packages which are
* unmaintained
* and, out of date (version is less than current upstream version)
* and, aren't in the Base category or a dependency of something in the
Base category
* and, more than X years old
will be removed.
The report at [3] might help determine the impact of various values for X.
