So, I'm curious whether we should really think it appropriate to
forcibly remove packages from mentors without any kind of warning to
the package creator?
I see this was done for all packages > 20 weeks. I think it would be
more appropriate for this trigger to be something like > 8 weeks
*after the RFS has been closed*. This gives the creator time to
reopen the RFS if he thinks it isn't really done.
Sometimes sponsoring just takes a while.
Best wishes,
