In the past, when people disappeared, their tools would (maybe) keep
working. Now that we *know* they will stop working once the account is
expired, do we know how requests for sourcecode for a tool will be
handled, in case someone wants to revive it?
And this is another reason multi-maintainer accounts are superior! Use them!
