The trouble with dumping unmaintained packages is that you can remove packages that actually work for some people (on distros that cull unmaintained packages). Ignoring faulty ones, for the moment, there's plenty of abandoned things that still work. Even broken ones may work for some people. I do think it's fair to remove someone who isn't actually contributing. There's no point in them being there if they don't do anything. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.8.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 12 16:57:42 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
