Well, no one has volunteered to take over maintainership, so it would
appear to be heading toward orphaned package status.  While that doesn't
mean immediate removal from the tree, it will eventually as bugs begin to
build up, and with a package such as this, they will probably build up to
the point they get the attention of tree cleaners relatively fast...

Overlay was suggested.  I imagine if no one takes over maintainership and
it gets pulled from the tree, sunrise might end up with it.  It's fairly
likely some user would be interested in it enough to try it there, altho
as complex and old as it is, how successful they might be is open to
question.
