Citation?  I don't see any GLEPs or other Council-approved policies to
that effect.

And this is of course why nobody actually wants to maintain these
packages - everybody is going to be looking over your shoulder because
they've already decided that the existence of the package bothers
them.

Honestly, threads like this bug me so much that I'm half-tempted to
take over maintainership of one of these packages just to be a test
case...  Ugh - time for an email break...
