Abandoned extensions.

[terabytesoftw]

As i agree with @schmunk42, the reality is that there are many abandoned extensions that won't be updated for Yii 2.2 Considering this, i believe we can tackle this challenge by identifying essential extensions and updating them to ensure they continue to function properly. Let's create a list of which ones would be crucial to update. i'm not saying this will happen overnight, but it seems like a promising path forward.

Extensions for me:

Not abandoned:

• yiisoft/yii2-redis
• yiisoft/yii2-debug
• yiisoft/yii2-faker
• yiisoft/yii2-queue
• yiisoft/yii2-imagine
• yiisoft/yii2-gii

Not YiiSoft:

• bizley/migration
• codeception/module-yii2
• kartik-v/yii2-widget-datetimepicker

Adandoned:

• yii2tech/csv-grid
• yii2tech/spreadsheet
• yii2tech/html2pdf

Is it essential? Your choice :-)

Abandoned:

• yii2-swiftmailer

[samdark]

That's because swiftmailer is deprecated itself.

And new version of the successor was release days ago!

I'll update my packages for sure. But everyone needs to be prepared for the grim reality that many 3rd party extensions will not be updated, too much time left.

Additional (not yet mentioned above) extensions for me:
yiisoft/yii2-authclient
yiisoft/yii2-bootstrap
yiisoft/yii2-elasticsearch
yiisoft/yii2-httpclient
yiisoft/yii2-mongodb

most of @kartik-v packages are used by almost every Yii user, so it cant be abandoned. https://packagist.org/?query=yii2&page=2
almost all of @yii2tech packages are archived, which is sad (i really like the behavior-trait, maybe sometime ill fork it in the future).

btw we can utilize https://github.com/awesome-yii/list to tell people recomendation about what package to use and what not.
