Yea, i think absentee maintainers is a concern, if the recongised
package maintainer isnt actually maintaining the package it would better
if it was automatically orphaned, at least that way everyone knows its
not being actively maintained and someone else may pick it up....
difficult thing to judge how/when someones package should be taken away
though.
