https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D251019 --- Comment #3 from Olivier Certner <olivier.freebsd@free.fr> --- (In reply to daniel.engberg.lists from comment #2) The commit rate for a project like Tauthon, whose aim is to continue maintaining Python 2.7 (bugs, security, and the occasional backport of 3.x features), which itself has been in maintenance mode in the past years, is hardly a relevant metric. Clearly, it will remain low compared to ones in expansion. And it actually *should*, without a change in the project goal. If you dig on GitHub a bit more, you'll see that there was a change in maintainership about 2 years ago, which went smoothly, and several guys very much interested in making sure it continues (e.g., one runs his startup infrastructure on it). I'm pretty sure there are lots of ports in the tree for projects who haven't seen many commits in *years*. This is hardly a problem as long as they still build and are used/maintained by some. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
