I'd welcome such a tool, but it makes me nervous that it hasn't had any activity at all in three months. Was this just a single-shot effort, and move on?

Three months for a utility tool like this is nothing to panic in comments about.

It’s open source. If you discover any bugs, report them. If the author doesn’t fix them quickly enough to satisfy you, fix them yourself.

		Unless you're invested in the tool for one reason or another, it's so much easier and more practical to just find a different one.

It's fine to mature projects if they're good enough according to author's point of view. No point of fixing something that's not broken. No point of adding features that no one needs.

That goes without saying. But there are a few bug reports and issues that have gone without a response for months. It seems abandoned, rather than finished to perfection. Not to mention that systemd is a moving target, with new features released quite often.

		I had a look at the issues. I see comments added to each one of them. Some of them are already on the roadmap.

For a small, essentially feature complete, utility, I would not be concerned. In fact for a tool like this I'd be more concerned by rapid turn-over suggesting current instability (i.e. a project in its early days, so buggy and/or changing rapidly).

But all their issues are being tracked tho? The author looks like put it on roadmap

Why can software not be finished?

I once wrote a Rs-232 translator softeare converting between two different flavors of a control signal. This thing is running for 15 years without update and a single bug now.

Granted it also isn't user facing and it's environment won't change, so there is no pressure for changes, but why do we think software needs constant updates? Because y'all use dependencies you need to update? Because you're used to software shipping half finished?

I actually use this tool and it's pretty great, certainly for my needs anyway.
