Ah that appears to be friendly fire :/

TBH, apart from the 3 unreleased fixes from ~2008 it doesn't look like the
kind of package that I would assume is unmaintained/mark us such. (ie: I
know you are active in the community.)
It did get picked up back in 2010 by some of the semi automated stuff I was
doing.

I don't recall doing anything further bar the shifting to github - my level
of checking for that is "it's got a big unmaintained banner" on it.
