Re: [vdr] The issue of orphaned plugins, addons and patches (Re: pvr-input)

So it appears that we have a problem with

1. too many vdr-related projects dying or being orphaned when the original author looses interest

In most cases, its probably not just loosing interest, but running out of time. Handling a job, a family and a time-consuming hobby all at once is nearly impossible...

3. too many different locations to find sources and patches

For short term patches, if a new VDR version breaks something, forums are a good source for patches. For more long term patches, the wikis are a good place to look, and they're easy to maintain by everyone. So if you find some useful patch, don't hesitate to add a link to the wiki.
