Can open-source users access the signatures that have been retired

We intend to make the retired signatures available at a later date
for researchers and corner cases
Is this an ongoing process?
Cisco Talos will continue to curate the signature set and may retire
signatures as they lose relevance to today’s security landscape.
Do you expect these futher reductions to be frequent or would it be
practical to make the retired signatures available as an "extra"
database - essentially a third party database - available for those who
do have the extra space necessary ?
