Some of these are several years old. Do we really need to get regular updates about these? Clearly, neither the users nor the maintainers care about these updates. Should there be a time limit in bodhi before it just gets deleted? Or... can somebody with elevated privileges just push the packages to stable to clear them out? Maybe if they introduce a bug, somebody will at least pay attention to them.
