There already is a fedora_active_user script of
sorts https://github.com/pypingou/fedora-active-user.
I would not be in favor of any respond or die automation. We volunteer our time and
effort to be packagersand the job is often thankless enough as it is. Having some
additional automation orphan your packagesbecause you happen to be away for a bit is
overkill. You want to attract packagers, not irritate them.

What about packages that see infrequent updates; I maintain Nethack
and the Dev Team can and does take years between releases. If it's
just a blanket email to ask the packagers if they're still interested
that's one thing, but going off package updates may be problematic for
some folks.
I'm thinking about a script which would run every month and:
- checks maintainer activities in git / bugzilla / mailing lists
(something like fedora-active-user already does) in the last six months
- if the user hasn't done any activity, send an email with a link
- if the user visit the link, do not bother them for the next 6 months
- if the user doesn't visit the link, send a second email after one
week and a third after another week
- after three emails without response, orphan their packages and inform
