> Perhaps you should chip in some time or dollars to help maintain a release version. The great thing about open source is that if you care enough, you can help yourself (either directly through code maintenance or indirectly via funding someone else).
I wish there was an easy way to crowdfund maintained releases. I've been burned by 3 frameworks moving on with no backwards-compatibility; that was worth money to myself & my business to keep them maintained.
Unfortunately, not enough to hire someone full-time or coordinate it (the original developers in all cases had no interest).
Does this exist?
