"A*lot* of those applications haven't seen an upstream
release
in half a decade" Which poses security risk and bugs not being dealt
and bad end user experience if our end user base chooses to install it
have you ever considered software as done and no known bugs?
( because if they were actually being maintained here with us those
fixes
would have found it's way upstream and new releases been made right ).
But clearly you dont understand that
maybe you do not understand that there is no golden rule
to fix bugs and release updates for no reason

upstream may dead, upstream my be alive but nothing to do
the software does what it is expected to do
so why should there be a new release?
not every software developer makes changes for the sake of the change
