Sunsetting ODT

[emersonveenstra]

TL;DR: I'm officially sunsetting ODT. The website will be shut down at the end of February, and there will be no new features or bug fixes

Long story short, I created this as a proof-of-concept application to show that it was possible to have an easy way to track changeset comments. Unfortunately the release was rushed due to the Mapping USA deadline, and I burned myself out of wanting to continue work on it with the state it was in.

So rather than it forever being in limbo hoping that one day I'll magically want to start up again, I've decided to officially sunset it. What this means is:

1. The website will continue to run until the end of February 2025 at which point it will redirect to this issue
2. There will be no bug fixes or new features
3. Any changesets that haven't been commented on in the last 6 months will be removed
4. This repo will be deleted in a few months, and it will instead live with the rest of my repos at https://git.sr.ht/~emerson/osm-discussion-tracker and the website will redirect there instead.
   I'm really sad to have to do this, but in some ways I did achieve what I set out to do. I proved that it is possible to create a web app that fills the need of tracking changeset comments, but I'm not the person that is able to build that application at this time.

Sad but I am glad it's not stuck in a weird twilight state. I look forward to whatever you get up to next.

Oh, what a pity! If you don't have time to improve it, then just leave it as it is; it's very helpful as it is.
