If someone picked it up to maintain it, I think a minimum requirement
would be to figure out some way to keep it updated.  If they're not
going to do that, then they're not really maintaining it, imv.  I'd
think even DSA might want to step in at that point because of the
concern you've described- false sense of security is worse than not
knowing.
