Sure, and Red Hat being paid for RHEL shipping Dstat for a decade could have helped out. But instead they decided to replace it.

And as a result I don't see a point continuing a project with the same name.

It's one thing to be upset due to a belief that Red Hat/others are at fault, but why lie to make your point?

Who lied about this ?

It's pretty clear we didn't accepted any PRs since December 2016 until Red Hat decided to replace our code, which started early June 2018. That's 18 months.

If I am upset about anything, it is this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1614277#c7

You are asking: "why didn't RH help out", you also didn't accept any pull requests. That surely would answer the question about why they didn't bother with pull request.

The question is then, how exactly do you think they have helped?

And where is the lie?

Maybe you should read the announcement and leave it at that.
