Dormant status feels like a death sentence of sorts or at least another
barrier to entry.

If a committer wants to fiddle with POMs for example across all of commons,
he or she should be able to do so. Even a casual change like fixing typos
would not be allowed.

I wonder if the opposite would not be more interesting: showing which
projects are Active.

The whole dormant/active deliberation could be remedied with a page ranking
project activity by commit + ML activity + last release date for example.

The audience can decide what is active based on this table: Project Name,
Commits Last Week/Month/Year | ML msg count week/month/year | Last Release
and Date

You get the idea...
