<p>Stable keywords (or the last stable version) can be removed from
a package if the relevant arch team does not respond within 90 days.
If the removal causes a breakage of dependency graph, the developer
must work with maintainers of the depending packages before proceeding
with it.</p>
<p>The policy for removing a package must be followed here, with exception
of last rite mails.</p>
