How status is used

Criteria and operational definitions for lifecycle classification in BrowserPedia:

Active Status
Currently developed and usable for the documented scope.
Maintenance mode Status
Still usable, but development or release work is limited; verify the support horizon.
Experimental Status
Available for evaluation, but compatibility, access, or behavior is not stable enough to treat as a default.
Discontinued Status
No longer maintained or distributed as a current product; alternatives should be preferred.
Unsupported Status
Public profile information remains useful, but the product should not be treated as a supported choice.
