Maybe is something obvious to the more technical crowd but as a user what
does "depreciated" mean in this context? If it's "loosing value" how is
this determined? by whom? or it being phased-out replaced by other tools?
Or is this based on your evaluation? If so can you specify what is
specifically missing/outdated/not maintained from EzJail, or is the whole
jail system going in a direction to make EzJail and other tools obsolete?


Thanks for any clarification!
