Has anyone actually explained the situation to the ftp-masters and asked 
for an opinion/exemption? It seems that moonlight in Debian is being 
given up on rather easily.

Either an effort should be made to package moonlight 2 and ship it with 
the next release, or else the ftp-masters reject it and should then be 
asked to remove moonlight from the archive rather than be forced to 
support increasingly ancient software. The ftp-masters can then explain 
to our users why moonlight just isn't good enough for Debian...
