I have to agree very strongly with this sentiment.  If I'm ignoring my
bugmail for 30 days and there are no (new) active bugs against the
package it should be stabilized.  The only time this shouldn't happen is
if there is a bug in the new version which isn't present in the old version.

We all need to learn to either be more responsive or stop complaining
when other people fix our stuff.  If you don't respond to your bugmail
in 30 days then "active" maintainer is a bit of a stretch unless you
have devaway setup.
