I love how even something as silly and unimportant as this has 13 open issue reports on GitHub.

- DarthGhandi 7y agoThe license one was opened nearly 6 years ago.
- Symbiote 7y agoIt seems reasonable for the author not to put a license on what's clearly someone else's trademarks and copyright.
- avian 7y agoIf you check the pull requests tab there's also a showcase of why some people resist putting stuff on GitHub. Most of the pull requests are low-effort tickets like "update bart.css" with no further explanation and a bunch of random changes in the diff.
- OJFord 7y agoThose almost certainly come from people using GitHub's web editor - the default commit message is 'Update {filename}'. I despise it, I don't know why they encourage such useless commit messages, there should be no default message because there can be no useful default.
- bachmeier 7y agoThere are two extremely simple solutions to that: - Disable issues (pretty sure Github didn't give that option to me alone) - Write on the readme that you're not working on this and will ignore/close any submitted issues "Resisting" putting stuff on GitHub is not necessary.
- dividuum 7y agoFor projects that are "finished" and will not be updated, I think using the archive function could be helpful. Marking a project as archived removes the issues tab among other things and clearly communicates that the owner is not interested in continued development.
