Excellent points I had not considered.
If as you say, somebody released code saying that it was something they were willing to support, it’s reasonable to expect said author to stand by their statements.
That said, this seems like it would be a more implicit expectation than an explicit agreement in many cases. How could a community enforce good behavior in this regard?
Going by your previous example, would it be reasonable for the recommended list of libraries to be more carefully curated for people on such a way that only stable _and_ well supported libraries are put forward? Putting hard requirements on official recommendations seems like it’s be a fairly simple way to avoid such situations.
