[Nix-dev] Limiting access to only maintained packages and ensuring core packages are maintained

[Shea Levy]

Hi all,

I think a few changes might improve package stability a bit:

1. Add a nixpkgs config setting to throw an error on packages with no
   meta.maintainers
2. Work to reach a point where a significant subset of nixpkgs (say,
   release-small) is allowed on this list.
3. Remove maintainers after X weeks without reply on issues they're
   tagged in about packages they maintain
4. (Optional) Separate out maintainers by system

Thoughts on these?
