I really see these deprecation campaigns as treading on somebody's toes. I really like linimon's periodic emails "FreeBSD ports that you maintain which are currently marked broken", which I see as a reminder that there are ports of mine that require action, but going further than that and deprecate a port that I maintain without even informing me in an official way is not what I consider collaboration. Even more so because I don't see any advantage in moving a port from BROKEN to DEPRECATED state. If a user has a working version of the port installed, he will stick to that, otherwise, installation will be frown upon anyway. I and bapt have already exchanged opinions on this subject more than once, and I would now like to see what other people (other maintainers in particular) think about it. Can we please stop this?
