(Me, asac, fta), nobody yet (that's the point of this bug).
As a MOTU and leader of the universe security effort, I noticed that
iceape had the highest count of open security issues of any free package
(ie. not Java) in Hardy. I don't need actually anybody else's
confirmation, but as Mozilla stuff is special, I decided that I should
probably confirm the removal with Mozilla Team people, so asked in their
channel.
fta quickly confirmed that it was a mistake that it was left around, and
asac presumed it was already gone.
It also currently has no binaries published; they're all provided by
seamonkey as transitional packages instead.

iceape is a much older upstream version (it doesn't even have the
security fixes that were applied to Gutsy).

As I said above, both he and fta have acked this.
