this package has discontinued maintenance
i have noticed that many FOSS packages have been considered discontinued because there has been no maintenance activity in some specific period of time. i can understand this happening when the developer(s) don't have the time, anymore. but what if the package has reached a point where there is nothing more to maintain? what if it lacks a need for new features? what if it lacks any need for bug fixes? what if there are no security issues for it? what if its developer(s) is/are just waiting for any reports to act on but none have come in since before the last X.0.0 version bump? is it now "fully mature"? what would that mean?
