Does that mean you are closing your repo? (I could construe the above that:

(1) you have agreed not to distribute any packages; or

(2) you have agreed not to distribute 0.21.5 packages; or

(3) you have just agreed that you are going to do no more 0.21 work
and work on 0.22 but leave your repo intact "as is where is"

On any analysis it sounds as though you have become a mythtv "dev" -
which I think is great because you have a lot to offer (IMHO).
