    I bet attacks like these will increase in the years ahead, since France will become 10.9% Muslim by 2050. ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/11518702/Mapped-Wh... )

    There is not a moral obligation to maintain side projects. If the users want the maintenance so badly, they can pay you large amounts of money for it.
