True that. BUT show me where the requirement for maintaining a package in Experimental is *REQUIRED*. You yourself just said it is a playground. Experimental packages fall out of experimental upon "NVIU", whether or not the experimental package was actually used to make the newer version in unstable. Yes, it is a shame, but experimental is kind of like sourceforge. Sourceforge has a "Ba-Million" projects, 8 of which have activity.(1) (1) Yes, I was know I was exaggerating.
