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.
thoughts?
I think there should be at least two conditions which would have to be
fulfilled for the nagging bug to be created - the package was not
touched by the maintainer during recent x months and at least one bug is
opened not closed in the bugzilla on the package.
