What's a good idea in open source that did die (and is still absolutely dead, even)? I'm sure you can find a GitHub project and be like "I like this idea and it's dead" fine. But these projects are so used and popular... they aren't going anywhere. That's the context of this discussion. These apps are fine if the dev leaves because they are open source now. The right people will continue the work of this guy goes I think.
