<p>I don't like the wording "no active development" since that doesn't really mean anything but it might turn users to a different plugin. For example the Scope plugin is probably the best debugging plugin, but this marks it with a big warning (which doesn't mean anything).</p>
<p>IMO it would be better to put a note at the end of the description like "This plugin currently has no maintainer. Would you like to help by contributing to this plugin?" or something like that.</p>
<p>If not that, then it should at least just say "No active maintainer" at the end of the description, not in stars at the very front.</p>
