Right - so maybe last check into devel branch since the last release of
the distro.
If we do that check before the alpha release that should let us track down
awol maintainers and unmaintained pkgs pretty easily, I think.
The majority of my packages does not get updated that often (15 from 21)
and there are also no bug reports unhandled for them.
I am not sure how the ratio is for others, but it does not seem to be
such a got criterion.
