Thanks Rajat,

Yes, we have many such cases, please add those repo/additional maintainers in etherpad and TC will take the next action.
Also, do not forget to update the status of the already cleaned-up repo.

Even if the PyPI maintainers you would need to contact are emeritus contributors; you may have someone still on the project team who has contact with them. I strongly recommend you utilize this time to help clean your projects up.

We'd like to request that PTLs, or their designate, reach out to any extra maintainers listed for projects you are responsible for and request they remove their access in accordance with policy. An example email, and detailed steps to follow havebeen provided at https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/openstack-pypi-maintainers-cleanup-email-template.
