At first, i must point out that i'm very thankful and happy about each library shared by members of this forum. It's really great to see the growing number of libraries available in the additional libraries thread. Many of those libraries are wonderful and completely reliable.

Nevertheless i see a problem coming up with the maintenance of applications, when the support for a library is abandoned by the author.

It's a timeconsuming process to
  1. experiment with a new (and often undocumented) library
  2. find out, that an announced feature is missing or an important function is not working correctly.
  3. inform the author about the bug/missing feature
  4. wait for a reply
  5. finally find out, that the author has abandoned the support for his library.
For this reason i would highly appreciate a status information for each library:
  • BETA
  • Support available
  • Support abandoned
