Ah, I think you are thinking of Seth's 'potentially unmaintained
packages' list? I think it checked build status and if the last builds
were mass rebuilds or not, if there were FTBFS bugs on them, etc. 

Yeah, that would be a nice datapoint, but I think more would be needed. 
Thats the kind of thing I would want a human to look over and sanity
check, then ping folks, and only later orphan those packages. 

I think this was more package oriented than this thread has been
talking about. Instead of maintainers who are
unable/unavailable/whatever, this tries to detect packages that are
unloved.
