Dear Linuxmint Team,
In the Linuxmint Organization on Github, none or only very few people know which of the 156 repositories is at which state of development(concept, WIP, suspended, abandoned, active, inactive, unsupported, moved).
The oldest repository had no changes for 16 years but could be simply stable or on the other hand abandoned.
(https://github.com/linuxmint/network-discovery).
In most other repositories its even more ambiguous, e.g. here: https://github.com/linuxmint/blueberry
One may get a faster overview if for each of the 156 repositories this status would be introduced and checked/updated at least one time per year by asking the repository maintainers, or letting them do it themselves.
A standard to easily communicate to humans and machines the development/support and usability status of software repositories/projects:
