Could you provide some examples? I wrote a lot of PHP libraries over the years, and while some are definitely stale because nobody uses them (and thus I have no incentive to keep the lights on), the only time I see dead packages, they're actually forks of other open source software that people contributed exactly one commit to (to change the package name).
