Absolutely agree with this. Just because it hasn't been updated with new features doesn't mean it's deprecated. That's veering dangerously close to the modern-day mentality of Linux (ifconfig -> ip; netstat -> ss; service -> systemd). It's a ridiculous notion. If it still builds and still works why not just set it to no maintainership?
