That is indeed sadly true right now, but that should change.

I don't think that's true.

Well, does that mean the stewardship sig will stop existing once we can
build non modular content against modules? I was seeing it as more long
term.
Probably both. The primary reason for starting this group now was the
issues around modularizing packages before the infrastructure had
caught up.
On the other side, I don't think that the problem of orphaned
"important" packages will go away, and this group can offer
maintenance until a "proper" new maintainer for those packages is
found.

I don't have much spare time these days, but feel free to add me to the
group/list and I can help as time permits.
