If I really needed a certain piece of software and no one else was actively maintaining it, I would become an active maintainer. If I can't maintain something myself and no one else is doing it, I will try as hard as possible to depend on something else. Active maintenance is, to me, at least as important as the actual quality of the software (an actively maintained software that is deficient now will improve over time). -- Mathieu -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
