Hoa is a set of 61 PHP libraries, during our latest + Virtual Meeting we choose to deprecate the libraries. This is important + for us to ensure that Hoa stays relevant and up to date regarding real + world needs.
+ We choose to remove the ones that are:

+
    +
  1. Un-used or unpopular,
    2. +
  2. Not relevant anymore because they refer to dead technologies.
    3. +
+

The main goal is to reduce the maintenance effort to maintain the Hoa + ecosystem.

+

To be sure about the list, we checked some packagist and github stats. + We also choose to keep the lib used internally at the moment.

+

Some of the libraries weren't registered on packagist which means that they + are not used in today PHP's world.

+

The deprecation process is simple:

+
    +
  1. Abandon the project on Packagist,
    2. +
  2. Update the README.md file to inform users,
    3. +
  3. Archive the repository on Github.
    4. +
+

Here is the whole list of deprecated libraries:

This is important for us to ensure that Hoa stay relevant and up to date + regarding real world needs.
