Abandoned pkg-voip packages

[Faidon Liambotis]

Hi,

I stopped doing pkg-voip work sometime in 2013. I was fairly active for
some time before that, and had (foolishly :) gotten myself in the
Uploaders field of all kinds of pkg-voip packages that I did uploads
for. 4+ years later I seem to be listed still as an maintainer/uploader
for certain packages, despite removing myself in svn/git.

Besides my personal grievance, this is an indicator that there are
packages that haven't seen an upload in years, and thus making it a
stretch to call them "maintained" by the VoIP team. They should either
be worked on, orphaned, or removed from the archive. Specifically:

- src:asterisk-prompt-es: last upload was almost 10 years ago, in
  February 2008. Before that, a handful of uploads in 2005-2006. Should
  probably be adopted by the Asterisk maintainers or they should ask for
  its removal. (also see #857294)

- src:libpri, src:openr2, src:spandsp: all were last uploaded by a
  mantainer in June 2014 (spandsp saw an NMU in Apr 2016). They're all
  Asterisk dependencies and if memory serves they were fairly simple
  packages, so perhaps the Asterisk maintainers could take them over?

- src:libccscript3: last upload was in June 2012. Two NMUs before that
  in 2011, then a maintainer upload in 2009. Doesn't seem to have any
  reverse dependencies in the archive?

- src:openam: last upload was in June 2010. Upstream Homepage doesn't
  even work. Popcon inst 9...

- src:gnugk: last upload for v3.6 was in May 2014, but upstream seems
  active (v4.7 was released in September 2017):
  https://www.gnugk.org/

- src:h323plus: last maintainer upload was in June 2012, with 3 NMUs
  since, in 2015 and 2017. Upstream released 1.26.8 in September 2017:
  https://www.h323plus.org/
  Fairly complex library, the only reverse dependencies in the archive
  are gnugk and openam (see above).

- src:siproxd: last maintainer upload in May 2013, plus an NMU in May of
  2015. Upstream seems fairly active:
  http://siproxd.sourceforge.net/index.php?op=changelog

The above list is not exhaustive. There are plenty more packages that
have Maintainer: pkg-voip-maintainers@, but that don't list me in
Uploaders, so they're not in my radar. I briefly looked at UDD, and
found a bunch more candidates (e.g. t38modem) plus a large number of
issues in general. Not sure how many people are still active in
pkg-voip, but it seems like a more careful audit and cleanup of VoIP
abandonware may be needed :)
