This is a responsible decision, and I hope it will be sufficient in these difficult times. I don't know what others expect, but to me, the purpose of DHF seems clear: to support the development of Hive applications. Now, if someone thinks that development should be stopped, especially for those applications that have proven over the years to be progressing and attracting new users to the ecosystem, then we are not living on the same planet.
But if we have already reached the point where nothing can help anymore, then the DHF should be abolished for all activities.
