I agree with Marcus.

My suggestion is that if you plan to put projects without maintainers out 
there, it must be clear to the newbies that these are not actively supported 
or maintained, and that it was just a demo or something to that effect.

Otherwise the newbies may be misled that there is a maintainer and will get 
frustrated in wondering why the failed pieces are not well-supported or why 
their questions went unanswered. As a result, they may be frustrated and end 
up leaving Squeak during the learning process.
