[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] Resign Maintainership (#435)

Sure, we can't force the maintainer to stay.

But as it's a forked plugin nobody would maintain, we might want to consider removing it altogether instead of getting an "unmaintained version of a maintained plugin" as @techee rightly put it -- which, if it stays that way long enough, is rather counter-productive as many people would use an outdated version of the plugin while they could use the upstream one (which indeed has less visibility than the already established GP, but could be used/packaged just fine -- or so I hope).  Maybe just list "this plugin can be found at [URL]" in a directory named after the plugin and voila, at least until that #440 thing got sorted out.
Just some ¢2.
