All,

Below is a list of packages that I wish to file ftp-master RM bugs for
in let's say one week unless there are objections.  This is based on the
a recent run of the zombie hunter.  This brings us into the early 2017
era of zombie packages, there is plenty more from 2017-2026 later.

https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/infra/golang-qa-find-zombies/-/jobs/10146754#L143

If anyone feels any of these packages should stay in Debian, please
speak up.

Remember, none of these should have any reverse dependency in Debian.  I
will double check with output from 'dak' when I file bugs; a mistake
here would indicate a bug in my scripts and so far I have not found any
example of this.

If you are surprised that several had recent uploads, please study the
reason for the upload: they are QA uploads -- I don't believe that is a
reason to keep the package, rather I believe it is a good reason to
remove the package, so that we don't need to spend future pointless QA
time on an unused golang-*-dev package.

A few of these packages have more recent upstream activity.  I believe
the cost to keep all the packages in the archive (with the eventual QA
need) is higher than the cost to (in quite rare situations) re-introduce
an newer version of the package: a lot ought to have happened in 10
years of upstream time that warrant a complete re-eximination of the
package.  The git repository will still be on Salsa, and old packages
available on snapshot.d.o too.  In border-line cases with a 10+ year old
package in Debian but with an active upstream, maybe we could file a
serious bug to keep the package out of forky/testing but keep it in
unstable, what do you think?  Carrying packages in unstable has some
cost too though.
