Orphaned to the extent that it was removed long ago, yes:
=========================================================================
[Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2001 06:38:13 -0500] [ftpmaster: James Troup]
Removed the following packages from unstable:
ical | 2.2-9 | source, alpha, arm, i386, m68k, mips, powerpc, sparc
Closed bugs: 92286
------------------- Reason -------------------
Requested by vela@; orphaned, bugs, previous maintainer considers it obsoleted by better alternatives, dead upstream
----------------------------------------------

If you wanted to take over upstream I don't imagine there'd be too many
objections, although you might want to check the bug number above and
the thread on debian-devel that it references.
