How do you call SW that relies upon x years old bugs? I call it poorly maintained. How do you call projects who stick with antiquated tools and ignore many years of development? I call them poorly maintained. Or differently: Upstream projects which stick with these antiquated versions are as poorly maintained and dead as projects written in KnR or projects staying with gtk-1. - These projects have had many years to update their code ... and failed. Now they've got to learn the hard way. Ralf -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
