libopenmpt 0.2 is end of life

The libopenmpt and OpenMPT development team has come to the conclusion that we can no longer spend the time and development resources required to continue maintaining the 3 libopenmpt 0.2 branches, which up until now we still maintained with security updates.

libopenmpt 0.2-beta1 had been released on 2013-12-31, more than 7 years ago, and went into mainly security-only maintenance with the release of libopenmpt 0.3.0-rc.1 on 2017-09-24. libopenmpt 0.2.12548-beta43, libopenmpt 0.2.7561-beta20.5-p14, and libopenmpt 0.2.7386-beta20.3-p17 are from now on not maintained any longer.

The libopenmpt development team will continue to maintain the latest stable version and the stable version before that (currently libopenmpt 0.4 and libopenmpt 0.3 respectively), in addition to the current development trunk libopenmpt 0.5. With the release of libopenmpt 0.5, libopenmpt 0.3 will also very likely be end of life and no longer get maintained.

Please update to a newer version.

Regards, manx and Saga Musix
