I have to say I am not really enjoying this
ongoing aggressive package retirement process.
If packages are not broken and needed by
other packages, then I don't see why we are
hurrying to break things.
I think a better process might be for
maintainers orphaning packages to contact
dependent package maintainers directly asking
them to take over the package they want to drop.
The orphaning procedure [1] states: "5. Announce on
devel which package you orphaned, so that others have a
chance to take over as maintainer." This sounds
reasonable to me, close to what you propose.
In theory yes, but in practice I am rather more likely to
notice a direct private mail than a mailing list post.
I understand your point. OTOH, send email to devel is
significantly easier then listing dependent packages and emailing
their maintainers.
V.
I had another idea: delegating the retirement of packages
to SIGs when appropriate, but of course that may requires a
clearer mapping of SIG packages.
