8 years ago Have you even looked at the suggested change? Or just blindly closed all open pull requests? From the look of the generic close message (which was also put on other PRs), it looks like the latter.
This PR is not a feature. In fact, it is precisely about this issue, i.e. that you are no longer working on oulu. It is to inform users of irc.flowdock.com of the service's current status, i.e. unsupported, unmaintained, and buggy. I can understand if you don't want to merge general features, and so close them out, but this PR is not like that.
The "Features" page on your website still lists this IRC gateway as a feature. The https://www.flowdock.com/help/irc page still exists, and is referred to by the main oulu README, which doesn't mention the current status. The irc.flowdock.com server continues to run. When you connect it even announces Flowdock is in active development, and any feedback is appreciated. This may be referring to "Flowdock-the-overall-platform", but that is not clear given the context that the user has connected to the IRC service. Apart from these few closed PRs, there is no public indication anywhere that oulu is unsupported and unmaintained.
The only conclusion I can draw from all of this is that not only do you not care about your IRC users, but you are happy to actively deceive them.
I'm sorry, but we won't be merging this since the flowdock team has deprioritized IRC. You are welcome to fork and run your own server if you'd like. I'm sorry.
