Caution
Caution: one person wrote most of the recent commits.
Why
- One person wrote 79% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. (source 1, source 2)
- Maintainers took a median of 34 days to first respond to 16 recent issues. (source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4)
What would change this
- A second person takes a substantial share of commits.
- Maintainers reply faster, with a median under 30 days.
- Partly checked: maintenance (Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share.)
