Discussion here:

https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/failure-crate-maintenance/12087/16?u=bascule

failure is a fairly pervasive crate and marking it as unmaintained immediately would be rather noisy.

On the discussion thread above I suggested waiting for some period of time for people to organically migrate to new crates, then filing an advisory.

Perhaps 3 months is enough time? (so August 2020)

It's the end of August. Let's do it?

Just pointed some colleagues at the deprecation, and they pointed out that it's not very obvious right now.
