Yes, "out of business" it too non-formalistic definition. To my mind, Gorbachev still acts in social and political life of Russia (For example, his recent letter to Gates) > And, FWIW, I think Gorbachev earns a mention in the ruleset. A mention - yes. Place in leader list - not now. This is my private opinion, of course.
