If you're so keen to add to the problem, you can have my spot as 
pgfoundry admin.

Otherwise, the rule that the pgfoundry admins agreed on is that if a 
project had no code and no activity in 6 months we would contact the 
owner, and if no response kill it.  That we've been lagging behind on 
this is a manpower issue (and to some degree a technical issue with GForge).

I've already added adddepends to pgFoundry (as "Old PG Upgrade"), since 
people spoke up for it.  I will assign one of them as admin of the 
project (not sure who yet).

However, in the last year nobody has spoken up for the other three, not 
even you.
