Doesn't that mean that we will add them back to repos? For me retired means that they are not in repos anymore, so what would orphaning exactly mean? Or is this just about marking it as "orphaned-retired" in dist-git? > Finally, does everyone agree about the original request: "remove all > maintainers > of retired packages"? Or should we bring this to FESCo? I think this is good idea to remove all maintainers from retired packages because they essentially can't do anything with them anyway.
