This really does not matter. We've had maintainers that were AWOL for years
without this affecting the distribution one bit because their packages were
cared for by co-maintainers and the appropriate SIGs.

If a package is unmaintained, send out a call to co-maintain to devel@ and open
up its ACLs.

Flagging maintainers as active/inactive is fun but it doesn't actually
improve the distribution.
