True, at least from the perspective of who is to blame (which I don't
think matters). But someone who cares about the package – and those
people are presumably reachable in this mailing list – should ask
MELPA to remove it from their archive. This is true every time some
package makes it into Emacs and stops being developed at its original
place. There's no way MELPA could magically find out about it.
