As a general rule, those projects which have not seen a release in a long period of time, have very little activity in them, and whose last developers are no longer particularly active will be archived on request. Note that you can always fork a repository into your personal namespace even if it is archived. Once you have a fork you can bring it back up to speed and then apply for it to be reinstated. > > > I want to: > > * merge the existing merge request to port the view to QtWebEngine, and > > * attempt a Qt 6 port. > > > > As it stands, Trojitá is simply the ONLY e-mail client that can > > deal with an > > inbox with tens of thousands of messages and is extremely fast at that. > > Well, maybe KMail1, but that would be much harder to resurrect > > than Trojitá. > > KMail2 simply does not scale to this use case, and neither do all the > other > > e-mail clients that I tried (except for Geary, which I use on my > PinePhone, > > but which cheats because it simply does not let me access mails > > older than 2 > > weeks at all, it includes them in the message counts, but they are > > completely filtered out from view). > > Regards, > Heiko > Regards, Ben
