Doubt still exists... Does this mean 'concluded' as in "We've finished polishing the pre production code and are close to releasing it" or 'concluded' as in "We have thrown our hands up in the air and won't be working on this thing any more to bring it to production" ??!!??

EDIT Seeing as I am getting slammed by downvotes, my comment here was simply pointing out that the headline I saw on HN could be read in multiple ways. As a long time user of SQLite3, I was initially excited when I read the title as I had thought it meant something good coming from the SQLite team. Turns out not to be. That, to me, still entails doubt.

" Lessons learned from SQLite4 have been folded into SQLite3 which continues to be actively maintained and developed. This repository exists as an historical record. There are no plans at this time to resume development of SQLite4."

Right there on the web page. Highlighted in green even.

Come on. Shaming helps nobody. I know I've missed seemingly obvious things before and am sure everyone else here has as well.

Below the fold even, after about 1000 other words of text. Would be better if the title had used 'cancelled' or 'terminated' instead of 'concluded' to explain the situation at the outset?

It's a code revision, not an article. If you're a programmer the change is super obvious.

The answer you seek is in the link, in highlighted green text.

Yes, it is, but I also initially assumed that this was a successor to SQLite3. No, it didn't take long to correct that misunderstanding, but it would be nice if the title were clearer.

HN, stop being so monumentally stupid. This is a genuine question, and one that I had too.

(To clarify, this is directed at all the downvoters, not the commentator I'm replying to.)

I didn't downvote, but I don't think it's too much to ask for commenters to read the linked web site carefully before they jump in with a comment. The answer is literally in the link.

[xelxebar]

It's not too much to ask. A person overlooked a thing once. Heck, I overlooked it too because on my phone the green text was so incredibly small I coudln't read it.

I don' think it's too much to ask for commenters to have a little charity.

They are just random internet points and this thread adds nothing to the discussion.
