It doesn't have to be. Just say you're not accepting PRs. Let people fork and develop their own implementations.

- jraph 3y agoYep, the SQLite way. And if you really like something about someone else's fork, you can even upstream stuff from it yourself (which, for clarity, SQLite won't do, but you can).
- whywhywhywhy 3y ago> Let people fork and develop their own implementations Then a fork gets made and if they improve it massively then half your users end up using it and the other half ends up bugging you to add the improvements into your version and it's no longer your project. I mean I agree too it should be open source if the dev doesn't really update it anymore but I can also completely see why they wouldn't want to do that.
- vonjuice 3y agoIn that case the person would be a bottleneck towards improving a piece of software that would benefit a lot of people. Sure, you're within your right to do that, but really?
