I would think the definition of abandoned would have to be that either the author is not longer contactable (after all available methods have been exhausted), or if the author themself declares it abandonded.

Ideally though abandoned modules would not be removed but instead put up for adoption.

    This defininition of abandoned doesn't normally have relevance for a search result unless people have gone in and marked the module as explicitly abandoned beforehand.

      Good point. The more meta data the better as far as a search is concerned.

        This is a case of metadata that probably wouldn't exist.
