 [I'm starting this ticket out in the Tor component, so it can get an
 opinion from the network team folks before it moves to the Trac
 component.]

 We have a trac component "Core Tor / RPM packaging", which up until
 yesterday had zero open tickets in it, and currently has one:
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=merge_ready&status=needs_information&status=needs_review&status=needs_revision&status=new&status=reopened&component=Core+Tor%2FRPM+packaging&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&col=component&order=priority

 Hiviah is long gone as our RPM maintainer, meaning we don't have one -- or
 rather, meaning we are at the mercy of whatever maintainer fedora and
 centos decide, or don't decide, to have for themselves.

 Having an RPM packaging component on our trac can mislead people into
 thinking that we have people looking at our trac who might work on RPM
 packaging.

 We should move the component to the trac attic, like other components that
 have lived a happy life but now it's time for them to move on.
