This is tricky because may discourage people from contributing new packages.

We don't really have any kind of package-maintainership, like Nix does, for instance. We do tend to follow this, but we shouldn't feel pressure to keep the packages we contributed up to date or anything like that.

Being socially pressured for things when there's no requirement doesn't feel like the kind of mutual care I'd like to promote.

We are here to take care of each other.

But yes, the statement is kind of true, still.
