On the one hand, 1 million+ weekly downloads says "yes".

On the other hand, no commits or releases in 5 years suggests "maybe not" because it suggests that we might not be able to get the maintainers to patch it for breaking changes in Node.js anyway.

@nodejs/citgm Thoughts? Do we have a requirement that someone sign on to be the maintainer that we contact when we find problems or anything like that?

It still seems useful to signal when a release is going to break it, even if it wouldn’t be updated.

Separately, though, the author remains active elsewhere, so i don’t think it’d be hard to get in touch with them.
