I think we should orphan the packages, for couple of reasons: 1. It's easier to find orphaned packages compared to retired packages 2. When we unretire, we will give the package to the requestor, but it might still leave the non-main maintainers (which I think is wrong?) I know you already mentioned - The script checks *all* branches in PDC and ensure that they are all "active=False", this is very important and please re-verify, as we dont want to orphan EPEL only packages as well as packages that are still being maintained in released branches but retired in rawhide.
