cvs commit: apache-2.0 STATUS

coar        00/08/01 08:56:08

  Modified:    .        STATUS
  Log:
  	We've been ignoring lots of PRs forever, marking them as
  	'suspended' with the supposed intention of either implementing
  	them someday or saying why not.  Well, it's about time we did
  	something with them, so now they're listed in STATUS for people
  	to work on as they may.

Irrelevant IMHO.  If we're going to suspend a report, we need to
record it on a work list somewhere so it doesn't get forgotten --
as most of these have for months or even years.  We should either
put up (list 'em in STATUS) or shut up (close 'em).

Was this just a dump of all of the suspended PRs?  Some of these were
suspended for good reason, like waiting for action from an external
source.  I'm just wondering if any review was done or if that is still
necessary.

Was this just a dump of all of the suspended PRs?  Some of these were
suspended for good reason, like waiting for action from an external
source.  I'm just wondering if any review was done or if that is still
