Jonathan Corbet (corbet@social.kernel.org)'s status on Friday, 08-Nov-2024 01:34:23 JST Jonathan Corbet For morbid reasons of my own I keep an eye on the Apache OpenOffice project's regular reports to the ASF board:
https://whimsy.apache.org/board/minutes/OpenOffice.html
As is normal, the September report says that all is great with the project - community health is always "improving". And they are clearly on top of upcoming problems: "Python 2 is unmaintained. We have in the development tree the external python3 support. Internal python 3 support is difficult. We are checking alternatives." They plan to fix it in "the next major release". The project hasn't made a major release in ten years, so I wouldn't hold my breath...
(OK, so I'm still clearly in a snarky mode, sorry.)
