This is the deprecation policy from cordova-plugin-contacts

Deprecation Notice
This plugin is being deprecated. No more work will be done on this plugin
by the Cordova development community. You can continue to use this plugin
and it should work as-is in the future but any more arising issues will not
be fixed by the Cordova community.

All the deprecated repos have a similar deprecation notice.

Other than that, I don't think we have something more official. Also, I
don't know were/if that message was discussed.

What I said on my previous message is my interpretation of "work", for me
what I said is work, not sure if everybody agrees on that, and it's not
official, just my opinion. Also my opinion of Cordova Community is
everybody who wants to contribute, not just the committers.

We have dozens of repos and hundreds of open PRs that we aren't able to
manage, so keeping the deprecated repos open for issues/PRs in case
somebody want to fix something will just bring frustration to those people
as their PRs won't be reviewed/merged. And if we plan on continuing
reviewing/merging on deprecated repos, why did we deprecate them on the
first place?
