the project in the community that last hosted the now dormant project.
Good point, perhaps we just need to organise ourselves.

I don't think that working, used-by-users code is 'dead'. There may
not be an active community of developers, but if the code is done, it's

Only place I favour closing projects is when they are in the incubator and
