In general, if a package is unmaintained, and someone volunteers to maintain it, they will be accepted. I gather Alex A did make the libtool release early last year, though I didn't check that myself. The general problem I've observed is that maintainers@gnu.org seems to have become more or less inactive wrt dealing with maintainers stepping down / disappearing. E.g., I told them about one such package (wdiff) and didn't get a reply, let alone any action. Well, maybe someday someone will have interest to do that stuff again. I did it for years, and I can't say it was a lot of fun. Meanwhile, more GNU packages will just become more moribund. Life goes on.
