I've caught up on all of this now.  I'm not sure I quite understand
the position of the current lilo maintainers.  In
    http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/05/msg00769.html

William, to what are you referring ?  Can you provide a bug number ?
William and Matt: Can you confirm that you still intend to remove lilo
from squeeze ?

Do we have another person who wants to maintain lilo in Debian ?

I think that if we do, and the current maintainers want to remove it,
we should give the package to the maintainers who do not want to
remove it.

Ian.
