A package that appears to work, has people using it, but has no one maintaining it is likely to become a package that has exploitable security issues. I'm in favor of retiring unmaintained packages. At worst, it will encourage someone to step up to re-add it if it is actually important. This means a new package review, which is a good thing for dealing with "specrot".
