What is the best way to retire a currently active project? I’ve been working on this one for a while now and I think its time to let go. Without going into too much detail, there are other projects and technologies that are way ahead now and I don’t see much value in investing in it any further.
What have you done to retire a project and what is the process like?
As operating systems, compilers, etc. change, it can be difficult to rebuild old projects.
Consider creating a virtual machine that is configured to build it again, in case you need to update it for some reason in the future. Archive that VM along with the source code, etc.
