What
`src/lib/scoring.ts` has a `KNOWN_REPO_CAUSES` map with 6 hand-curated entries for famously abandoned repos (Atom, Bower, PhantomJS, etc.). The leaderboard in `src/components/Leaderboard.tsx` also has a static list of famous casualties.
We'd love more entries from the community.
How to contribute
In `src/lib/scoring.ts` — add entries to `KNOWN_REPO_CAUSES`:
```ts
'owner/repo': 'A short, witty, accurate cause of death',
```
In `src/components/Leaderboard.tsx` — add entries to the `FAMOUS_CASUALTIES` array with `fullName`, `cause`, `epitaph`, `deathYear`, and `language`.
Guidelines
- Repos must be genuinely abandoned or officially deprecated
- Causes should be factually accurate and written in the same dry, deadpan tone as the existing ones
- Keep causes under ~60 characters
- Good candidates: Parse, CoffeeScript, Flash SDK, Backbone.js, jQuery UI, Google+, Heroku free tier, SourceForge
