- What's the exact difference between Supported and Maintained? The
only difference I see is that "supported" has the word "paid" in the description, but I doubt that most of us get paid for this in particular, and I also doubt it changes anything on how good is the support (hobby vs. job).
My fault. I wanted to change this but missed it. I wanted to s/supported/paid for ... (Even I don't know anybody at the moment who is getting paid with Geany stuff ;) )
I suggest to use paid instead of supported and change current usage of supported to maintained.
I'm still not sure what that fact someone is paid or not changes, but otherwise it looks fine and clearer to me.

Whether paid or volunteer, it's still "Maintained".
I suggest dropping the "Paid" status altogether if no one has used it by the time all the plugins' info is filled in.
I disagree. Currently there might be no plugin maintainer being paid to work on a plugin, but: - this might change (...) - is something user should be able to see to resynch there demandings with reality.
I'm reading e.g. support@pidgin mailing list and more than once a week I need to facepalm myself because of users don't understand they are not talking to some paid support. I really don't want to end up on Geany with such situation.
