Basically, the maintained packages are those that are included in the 
standard astlinux.config file.  For a little bit of history, several 
packages that are currently in the development environment are there 
because they were part of the original buildroot tree.  Some packages 
(such as wget) would provide functionality that is already present in 
busybox.  There are no real plans to mark packages as unsupported or 
unmaintained, but that would not be too difficult to do.  It's just not 
going to be near the top of the priority list.
