Hi.

This time I've gone trough the list of long orphaned packages.
These are packages unlikely to ever get a new maintainer, at least
they didn't manage to do so in the last two to three years. Unless
noted otherwise, the listed packages have no rdepends, and even the
ones that do only have meta-packages as rdepends (CCed since these would
cause RC bugs in those packages).

This is already a filtered list, so all listed packages are suggested
for removal from the archive.

None of those packages are particulary buggy from the looks of the BTS,
maybe with the exception of falconseye.
