Would be beter to have "Notify of orpaning" link in "Package
Actions". Only interested people + the maintainer would get the
notifications.
Yes, and why not a RSS feed/mail subscription to follow the comments ?
Of course, it would be nice to also auto-mail the maintainer, say, one
week before the auto-orphaning.
And to auto-mail to the list, perhaps somebody is willing to maintain a
package.
I'm afraid there will be tons of such e-mails. Would be beter to have
"Notify of orpaning" link in "Package

Also, how about if orphaned for more than 3 months, then delete?
I think auto-orphan is ok, but auto-delete is a bit wrong. There is a
lot of really outdated packages, but maybe some ones are using them. And
it can be used as a template for an updated version.
As a newcomer to packaging for the AUR, that was one of the things I
thought "I wonder why they don't do that already"
I'd read about some September cleanups (2011/2012 only?).
Also, how about if orphaned for more than 3 months, then delete?
