GIMP-win owner actually did upload new binaries to SF account. There hasn't been a GIMP release for a while, but the SF repo was never abandoned. SF is blatantly lying about this. So no, not abandoning the account won't save you.

Oh, is that a thing? I was surprised when the Lobo project's admin rights were handed over to some relatively unknown developer. I had a long and confusing discussion with the new project admin here: https://github.com/UprootLabs/gngr/issues/87#issuecomment-86...

Could the hypothetical you remove the project?

That's illegal (with the European laws).

Which laws?
