Feel free to add TrackStat to your repository file in same way as you did with Database Query. After adding it you can also do a pull request that remove TrackStat from the unsupported repository: https://github.com/LMS-Community/lms-plugin-repository/blob/master/unsupported.xml The idea with the unsupported repository is to make it possible to install plugins which have been abandoned by the original developer but have been tested by someone in the community that they work with the latest LMS release. Unsupported indicates that the plugin has worked at some time but nobody have verified it with the latest LMS release so you use it at your own risk and it might break LMS since it hasnt been formally tested. All my plugins/applets can be considered to be abandoned and they will be added to the unsupported repository as soon as someone has told Michael(mherger) via pull request (adding it to unsupported repo) or some other way that they work with currently latest LMS release and they want it to be available as an unsupported plugin. I dont think Michael will add any plugin to unsupported repo before its requested and someone has verified that it seems to work with currently latest LMS release. If someone volunteer to take over support/maintenance of a plugin it should be in a normal repository file and not in the unsupported repository.
