alt Hacker News> Yep, you're definitely not wrong. We see it all the time on GitHub. If a project hasn't gotten a new commit in 2 days then the project is claimed dead.
There is a difference between being dead and not actively maintained. If a popular FLOSS package isn't touched for many moons, do you think it just means it's done?
I wish the underlying platforms would also consider providing a "done" version now and again, instead of bundling bug/security fixes with new problems. You can rarely just write something and call it done on something like Android. Anything other than a simple crud/webview wrapper will usually need to use permissions of some sort to do useful things, and as soon as you start using anything like that, your code is probably obsolete in a day or two.
