I think this is up to the maintainer of kdegames to decide which is Matt Williams. If you are the maintainer of Kolf, I trust Matt to consider your opinion.

If Kolf 2.0 is what is developed in trunk currently and it will be shipped in kde 4.4.0, there is no need to move stuff to unmaintained. That's for real dead apps. We can remove applications, there is no need for an extra RC in that case.

Again, the module maintainer should deal with this, together with the app maintainer.
