While the MAINTAINER line references your email, you do, even if not for version updates. As maintainer, you have a couple of PR options up your sleeve: - Reset maintainer, so someone else can pick them up - Set EXPIRE with reason and an appropriate lead time to removal The above can also serve to communicate to users-come-would-be-maintainers that they might need attention and provide the impetus to jump in and have a go :) Koobs
