Then we should add 'unmaintained'... something like this:

--- linux-2.4/MAINTAINERS.orig 2004-03-08 09:15:19.000000000 +0200
+++ linux-2.4/MAINTAINERS 2004-03-08 09:15:29.000000000 +0200

Obsolete: Old code. Something tagged obsolete generally means
it has been replaced by a better system and you
should be using that.
+ Unmaintained: Nobody is taking care of it. Maybe you want to?
