What is the bar for "actively developed"? I think NH4 has been slumbering for a few years now. --Testbutt (talk) 09:48, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

I'd like to know too. A less subjective option would be to have a sortable table of all variants with links, latest release, etc. Also, where patches are concerned, what's the bar for "historically significant"? --Aximili (talk) 10:23, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
Yeah, the list of actively developed variants is probably too big. NH4 had 3 commits in 2020. "Currently in maintenance mode" is probably a more realistic description. Likewise with at least GruntHack, NetHack Fourk, and FIQhack. --Bhaak (talk) 11:07, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
