Iggy Pop: Albums Aren’t Products:
' I worked half of my life for free.
I didn’t really think about that.
Until the masters of the record industry
Kept complaining that I wasn’t making them
Any money.To tell you the truth when it comes to art,
Money is an unimportant detail.It just happens to be a huge,
Unimportant detail,
To all of us.A good LP is a being.
It is not a product.It has a life force,
A personality,
A history,
Just like you and me.It can be your friend.
Try explaining that to a weasel.'
— Iggy Pop, BBC Music John Peel Lecture (2014)

@benpate @tess it's probably fair to pick a minimum number, although @aeva rightly pointed out that your motivation is going to flag if you never make any progress whatsoever.
So, regular review of security reports, bug triage, dependency and platform updates, that kind of thing are probably the minimum for "this software is not unmaintained".

@evan
and tbh: yes it drives me crazy, if I see that the main maintainer of a project I use is not releasing new software, even they promised it, and prefer working on their new project. It drives me nuts, but it's their right to do.Hopefully there will be a bigger team at one point, so the complete project is not relying on one person (who did a great job so far).

@tess I'm actually asking a real question about the craft.

@aeva I don't think your interpretation of RFC 2119 SHOULD is correct. RFC 2119 SHOULD basically means "MUST, unless you have a really good reason."

@alice I got mine before the move to AZ because I wasn't sure they'd even be available here.
Gladly there's pockets of actual humans here in this "red" state. (I think it's turning blue from what I hear. Well, it's more blue now with me here rofl)

@aeva I think there's an interesting part of your answer. There's a minimum amount of time just to deal with dependency changes, triage bugs and hopefully fix some. But doing that minimum is probably not sustainable -- it probably means you're losing interest in the project. Having a little more time for new features, refactors, and so on is probably better for the long term.
