Hi Mat!

> IMO, you should just retire the jboss/wildfly stack right now. It has not been maintained for years already: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/SD26DWKQRKF4PIW656NKSRZXBJUP2PI4/

Oof. I didn't know that it has been basically unmaintained for so long ...
This post predates even my becoming a "packager" in fedora :/

Concerning JBoss / wildfly: We'll eventually get rid of most JBoss /
wildfly packages anyway.
However, the team responsible for dogtag-pki still needs some jboss
packages as dependencies, so we can't just retire everything.

This is why we decided on the current procedure - only try to find
maintainers for packages the stewardship-sig and the dogtag-pki stack
don't depend on, and orphan / retire unnecessary packages "layer by
layer".
The end result should be about the same, but this way maintainers of
dependent packages have more time to adapt and / or react to changes,
and the changes themselves are smaller.
