Care to educate those of us who are confused by this?



Thanks, wasn’t sure if you were saying that it was untrue that there were no changes or that it was not an issue that there weren’t.

Even so, I’ve yet to come across a software project in my career that didn’t have a fully stocked backlog of bugs, performance optimisations, security improvements etc.

In most cases if I find a project on GitHub that hasn’t been updated in 6 months, it’s usually a sign that it might be dead or languishing. Not saying that’s the case here, but the question seems valid.

Also not making a value judgement. Signal is free and open source, and the guys are rockstars.

But it does make me wonder if what’s running in production is a 6 month old build of that code, or is there more to it...


Can you name anything that should have been fixed in Signal Server since April?
