Which part? That the package is orphaned for over 6 weeks? Retiring is
a manual task which means if tyll et al aren't available it doesn't
get done.
Or that it is comaintained? A lot of co-maintainers are only sort of
interested in a package and don't want to own it directly. Some do.
This is a reminder that the comaintainer should take over the package
or drop it if they don't want to take over maintainership.
