About

This PR updates the project documentation to better reflect the current maintenance reality of this repository.

In recent discussions around larger contribution proposals (#820, #795), it became clear to me that the expectations currently set by README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md are too optimistic and no longer match what we can realistically review, merge, and maintain.

The goal of this change is therefore not to discourage contributions in general, but to set clearer expectations upfront:

  • this project is under limited maintenance
  • small, well-scoped fixes are still welcome
  • broader feature work or deeper parser changes are currently outside the scope we can maintain responsibly

I would rather communicate that clearly in the documentation than leave contributors with expectations that we may not be able to meet.
