Since none of these users seem to have found time to react, who else can step in? Should the package perhaps be moved out of LO to a place that is actually maintained?

If we went by that logic, we'd also get rid of Go: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/833025 It's very clear that people aggressively ignore SRs and ghost people by default. It's unpleasant and in all the years I've been involved in openSUSE, it's a constant theme. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!

The upshot is that, if everything has failed, one can still `osc changedevelrequest` hammer on openSUSE:Factory (the last projects that will lose attention, I guess).

Jan, Did you try emailing the people with review priviledges to that project? That approach worked really well for me this week when a whole bunch of submissions of Factory were lying around unreviewed ;) -- Richard Brown Documentation is NOT the act of writing down what software can do. Documentation IS the act of writing down what software maintainers are prepared to support, and how to avoid needing that support.
