Dormant plugins

Plugins with no release in 540 days or more, ranked by how widely installed they are and how far their declared compatibility has fallen behind, not by how long they have been quiet.

Duration alone is a poor ranking: a five-year-dormant plugin with a responsive author is a different case from an eighteen-month one with nobody home. The ranking here is the install band scaled by how far the plugin’s declared tested up to version has fallen behind WordPress 7.1. Dormancy is a maintenance observation. It says nothing about the owner, and nothing about whether the plugin is safe to run.
