If nobody is willing to put a component to "dormant" state, then the
label doesn't make any sense. I would vote to remove the dormant state
in general.
If we don't have any need of a specific component we can put it to
attic.apache.org too.
No need to duplicate things.

I don't like the idea of putting inactive components in the attic -- unless
there is some unreasonable length of time that goes by without any
development (3 years?). People who want to get things out of the attic are
usually a sole passionate fellow. Can a sole fellow unilaterally get a

I like this idea, but unless you automate the site update it adds an
extra manual step to the release process.
