We have now celebrated two years since the last uClibc release, which
happened on May, 15th 2012. My initial call to do a new release dates
back from September 2013.

Is the intention of the uClibc maintainers to simply let the project
die under its inactivity? If that's the goal, then I believe we're on
the right track.

Best regards,

Thomas
