Hello,

I see that the package at mentors is no longer there. What happened ? Can the
RFS be closed, or can you restore the package at mentors ?

no package at mentors for RFS 664181 trustmanager 3.0.5-1
no package at mentors for RFS 659805 aguilas 1.0.1-1
no package at mentors for RFS 660314 nbc 1.2.1.r4+dfsg-3

So, I'm curious whether we should really think it appropriate to
forcibly remove packages from mentors without any kind of warning to
the package creator?

I see this was done for all packages > 20 weeks. I think it would be
more appropriate for this trigger to be something like > 8 weeks
*after the RFS has been closed*. This gives the creator time to
reopen the RFS if he thinks it isn't really done.

Sometimes sponsoring just takes a while.

Best wishes,
Mike
