I think it would be possible to provide an infrastructure so that people 
who care about communicating certain bits of information ("this package 
exists and here is its documentation", "this package is really not 
maintained and therefore deprecated") could do so.

Perhaps this infrastructure will be developed as a side-effect of what 
needs to be done for those libraries in the Zope Framework anyway.
