I think the PEP 11 procedure is just right for this. It is a call for maintainers, so if any user is interested in ongoing support, they should step forward. Having then also blog posts about these pending deprecations sounds fine to me - also adding them to the 3.2.x release pages would be appropriate (IMO). It's important that we give users due notice, but lacking any actual contribution, we should also be able to remove the code eventually. So please go ahead and add them to PEP 11.
Ok, I added OS/2 and VMS to the PEP 11. I also opened any issue to remember that I should do something to raise an error on build.
