Ask HN: What critical open source software you use that is not well maintained?
The goal is to make a list of OSS projects get public money and be recognized as "critical public infrastructure"
- fivelessminutes 5y agoIf they're 'not maintained' there is nobody to give the 'public money' to.
- mehdim 5y agoUpdated : not "well maintained". Or not enough maintained compared to their criticity and their global use.
- fivelessminutes 5y agoDoesn't this punish maintainers who do a good job for free, by excluding them from funding? I think you have to look one step deeper at how to deploy resources to encourage the system sustainably, not just throw money at the dead and dying.
