I don't think that's how Open Source works. Realistically the way I
see this playing out is that the people responsible for maintaining
the legacy boot stack will retire the packages, some well meaning
community people take them over, then everything breaks in an
unexpected way before a Fedora release for some technical reason and
the new package maintainers have no idea how to fix the underlying
issue. Then Fedora QA needs to decide if the legacy boot failure is
actually release blocking. I'm happy to be proved wrong, but asking
someone "have you tried getting more people involved" is neither
helpful nor realistic.
