I encourage everyone with thoughts on this topic to reply here as a community so we can collectively gain perspective on the matter.
Apart from the obvious one of no-one can ever again release a new version,
I think "The Archive" has become a real millstone.
It is now badly outdated and needs to be much more dynamic and wiki-like, with (at the very least) anyone able "up/downvote" or to add tags such as "2.2-only" or "works-on-4.1" etc.

I agree with Pete that the archive does need a overhaul. I also know it too will take a lot of work to get it done. I like the idea of up/down votes. Maybe also a way to donate to the program author, if the program is really good. Like the old Euphoria dollar thing. Maybe a link to their paypal or patreon? I'm also all for moving Euphoria to github. I realize this would all be a lot of work, but it would be worth it. Maybe OE could look into getting a sponsor as others have said or maybe opening up a Patreon? These are just my thoughts. I'd really like to see Euphoria flourish again!
