This timeframe doesn't designate a person as MIA, sorry.

In fact Sascha's last upload seems to be this one
https://tracker.debian.org/news/761210 (Date: Feb 4th, but it went
through NEW, so accepted Apr 11th), which is fairly recent.
Also the last maintainer upload of python-selenium was a bit more than 6
months ago, and this doesn't really warrant a "forced orphaning".

I do acknowledge that Sascha is not very active (but never was, there
was already a entry in the MIA db from 2014), and he/she is quite
unresponsive, which is very relevant considering the low number of
package he/she maintains.

Sascha: pretty please, consider this offer of either giving up the
package or comaintain it with the PKG-OS team.
