Just in case the stable release managers what to do something about it

clamav 0.94.x will not work at all from April 15th 2010 and will not
recieve signature updates from May 2010, so I guess removal from
stable/oldstable is in order as well as an announcement of some sort
(DSA perhaps?).

April 15th is in one week's time and the clamav project posted a
reminder about this:

Is there anything going to be done with the package currently in Lenny?
It won't work at all after that date, and I've just seen someone on
#clamav who had not clue what debian-volatile is, or that he needs to
upgrade.
Is there a way to notify the users? (NEWS file in package, debconf
question telling them about the EOL, and asking to upgrade, ...)
