I'd vote for continuing to maintain it as well. But I wonder if we ought to start truncating the back side of it. 10+ years is an awful lot of release/fix history and I doubt anyone seriously cares about about more that 5 years back (or less). Or maybe partitioned changelog files (1.0 versus 2.0 versus 3.0 versus...)
