Comment (by toshio):
The major problem with removing acls is what happens in case a package is
unretired. Especially when a package is unretired within a few days of
being retired. (For instance the, "I wasn't reading the warnings about
this package being retired but I need it as a dependency of my package so
I'll take it" issue or the "I hit the retire button by mistake" issue).
Perhaps something can be done to hide the acls in the interface (and
package owner email aliases and etc) if the package is retired? Although
that leaves people who want to remove their acls for some reason (ie: I
was involved in ocaml development but now I'm leaving that community and
don't want to be informed of changes whether or not the packages are
required or active.) Without a method to do so.
