Status of zinit as of 11/01/2021

This comment explains how this org came into existence. Copied below in case it is removed.

TL;DR: I'm putting up clones of all of his tools I depend on in this org: https://github.com/zdharma-continuum. I no longer trust /u/psprint2 as a maintainer and will provide a reliable way for myself and others to rely on the work he's invested in. I do not have any personal issues with him and would welcome his continued contributions.

While I appreciate the work that /u/psprint2 has put into building and maintaining these tools, I no longer find him a justifiable dependency. He has demonstrated his complete unreliability twice now.

One year ago, this thread popped up.

I'm the projects' owner and I can delete them anytime I want. And that just happened – I've had some say major doubts whether I want the time-consuming projects to go on, so I've deleted them

You can delete them any time you want -- at the cost of your credibility as a maintainer.

I don't want to depend on a source maintained by someone who can't be trusted to not take destructive actions, so a buffer (a fork) must be put in place.

I'm putting up forks of the most recent copies of the sources that I depend on personally (and thus have up-to-date clones of) in an organization on Github. I'm happy to give maintainer privileges to people with a demonstrated previous interest/contributions to zsh / zinint / zdharma (by way of commit hashes, google cached GitHub issues pages, Wayback machine, etc.).

I have no interest in dealing with errors like "sorry, the tools you built your zsh workflow on couldn't be cloned because someone randomly deleted them."

Archive them, resign as maintainer; I don't care. Don't delete all the source code on a random Thursday without any notice.
