I disagree about the bug being open. A lack of filed bugs could mean that 
no one CARES about the pkg at all. And if we have pkgs which are not being 
maintained AND no one cares enough to file a bug about then either they 
are:

1. extraordinarily stable
2. dead upstreams
3. unmaintained
4. unusued

in ANY of those cases I'd want to start thinking about nuking the pkg from 
fedora.
