I recently added a very visible note to the README.md of one of my projects that essentially said: "lack of commits means this is STABLE, not dead. Our plan for <next major runtime> is bla bla, in a year or so"
This expectation that things need to be committed to or updated every month has to stop, we're just wasting time and energy on stuff that is already fixed (unless there are security issues, of course).
Maybe GitHub needs to automatically include an UPDATES.md into each page, I dunno.
