Unmaintained Free Software

[ Thanks to Uwe

for this announcement: ]

Hi everyone.

Unmaintained Free Software, a WWW-site which keeps track of
orphaned or Free Software projects has been heavily updated.

Changes include:

  • The site is more Lynx-friendly now.
  • Added possibility to view old announces.
  • The Index-page now shows the number of maintained apps and the
    number of unmaintained apps in the database.
  • Added preview-functionality.
  • Added a field called ‘Programming language’ to the
    database.
  • Several fixes and optimizations.

The goal of the site is to provide developers a resource, which
they can use if they want to work on a project, and don’t want to
start from scratch, but rather improve already written
software.

The site is located at: http://unmaintained.sourceforge.net.

The software that drives this site is called ‘unmaintained’.
Version 0.4 of ‘unmaintained’ has been released on June 16, 2000.
Get it from
http://download.sourceforge.net/unmaintained/unmaintained-0.4.tar.gz
.

Everyone who knows about any project which doesn’t have a
maintainer, is encouraged to announce that software package at
Unmaintained Free Software.
The site lives from your contributions!

Thanks.
