Because if someone has enough money and wants to adopt it, they can. I doubt they will (I think only 2.2 has continued much after the community abandoned it and then not in a very organised way) but it leaves the door open. It should also encourage RMaints to actually post a Request For Adoption notice / Orphan warning promptly, rather than our July meeting being told that some developers thought it was abandoned in April. I think there was no big announcement of that... or I missed it because of other announcements in April and my shortage of time but http://koha-community.org/download/ says "the previous releases still being supported are 3.4 and 3.6." So let's make it less scary for the RMaint to bow out neatly, right? I expect most community members will strongly advise users to upgrade, but this isn't feudal software where the copyright holder can kill it off and we shouldn't make it appear that it is.
