One of the reasons I think it would be useful to have warnings is that there are other ways in which DDs may be constantly contributing (e.g., contributing regularly to a package VCS), without *realizing* that they haven't done an upload in x years; so perhaps they haven't needed to do any uploads in that time, but aren't idle and shouldn't be idled out without warning. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
