Those three things are not comparable. "Unmaintained" and "buggy" are,
to at least some extent, objective criterion. "Useless" is a matter of
opinion. Is 'nvi' useless? Not to me, but I'd guess that a great many of
our users would think so. Who decides?
And to comment on another of your points: yes, requiring two menu
formats is silly. If the FDo format is a complete superset of the debian
menu format, then transitioning to FDo format is a fine proposal.
Someone (Bruce Sass?) proposed a straightforward transition plan.
