So you mean feature complete and it only needs updates to fix bugs or security issues? Since it still is maintained (which is what maintenance mode means or not) why would you not include it in a comparison?

I would guess that people see "maintenance mode" and think that means it's pretty much EoL and will no longer receive security patches in the near future.

That is certainly the mental model I have for something in maintenance mode.

To me the whole point of saying "maintenance mode" is to tell people to only expect things like necessary security patches and critical bug fixes instead of new features. If those things aren't happening, then there isn't any maintenance going on.

I am going to still use it until something else catches up with it. uWSGI is fast and feature rich. As long as the maintainers address security issues as they pop up, it is still a good choice, even in maintenance mode.

Yep. The only thing I am missing from uWSGI right now is support for cgroups v2 so that I can limit CPU usage on a per-worker basis without fighting systemd.
