Hello,
You have a tool presented as "official" that hasn't had it's
original maintainer in 4 years and was only kept on life support up
until 9 months ago.
Agreed, the "official" (the term used is "recommended") status is
gone. But that's a reason to fix the documentation, not remove it.
As I see it, we have three choices, in increasing order of
desirability:
1. Remove all mention of portmaster. That's what this PR recommends.
2. Do nothing.
3. Update the documentation to indicate the current status,
recommending alternatives if possible.
Number 4 is missing: find a maintainer for it.
I would volunteer for this. But before a real commitment i need a
closer look at it, which i will do next week. So please standby.
Thank you.
I did take a look. I could do both: maintaining the port and maintaining
the software. What do you need? ;)
Greetings,
Torsten
