It is on its way out. The developers over on the chat
line directed me to zef when I asked for help getting
panda working.
Panda stinks.
That's not really true or called for.
Panda is broken and not going to be repaired. The
developers on the chat line recommend zef instead.
Was polite enough?
Perhaps you should check out the section “The End of an Era” in last weeks Perl
6 Weekly: https://p6weekly.wordpress.com/2017/05/16/2017-20-crossing-the-alps/
You should realize that open source software is not made by robots but by
people. People for which keeping up with changes can take more resources than
they have at hand.
Also remember that without panda, I don’t think we would have had an ecosystem
out now as fleshed out as it is now.
So saying that certain software stinks, feels more like projection than
anything else. So yes, *I* think it was uncalled for.

Would substituting "broken" for "stinks" be polite enough?
