[Nix-dev] Repo for incomplete/unmaintained work

[Marc Weber]

We've had some discussion, my proposal was:
Add a marker such as "unmaintained-since: ..."
then remove after 6 month or so. Due to the "since" you know exactly
what to remove.

The hard thing is to define what it means to be "maintained or
unmaintained".

Thus you could also introduce markers such as

  maintainance-levels = [ "gets-updated-within-a-week-if-new-version-appears" "somebody is reviewing code" ".."];

Not sure whether it would make sense.

Whether such code gets moved to another repository or not - which is the
benefit/ difference from having a simple wiki page "unmaintained
packages for nixos/ can be found in nixpkgs git history"? Then at least
google finds it .. No idea.
