Subject: [PATCH] Remove private repositories from the public status file
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

status.json lives in a public repository, so every entry in it is readable by
anyone. Private repos were tracked here and merely withheld from the rendered
output — but the file itself named eleven unreleased privacykey projects, which
is the thing the withholding was meant to prevent.

Only public repositories belong in a public hub. The rendered project list is
unchanged; the tier legend shrinks, because it previously advertised which
tiers private repos sat in.

Note this does not remove the names from git history.

 | Tier | What it means |
 | --- | --- |
 | 🟢 **Active** | I'm in this most weeks. Features are landing, so expect breaking changes between releases — read the changelog before you upgrade. I read issues and generally act on them quickly. |
-| 🚧 **Building** | Being built. Nothing is released, nothing is supported, and it can change shape or disappear without notice. Don't build on it — watch the repo if you want to know when it ships. |
 | 🛡️ **Maintained** | I'm not adding features here. It still gets security patches, dependency bumps and fixes for anything that breaks. Safe to depend on for exactly what it does today. |
 | 📦 **Parked** | Finished or paused. It does what the README says and I left it working, but nothing is watching it, so it could rot quietly. I'll answer a question. I'm not promising a fix or a release. |
-| ⚠️ **Unmaintained** | I'm not watching this one. Something it advertises may already be broken, and bugs won't be fixed on a schedule. Read it, fork it, vendor it — this says nothing about whether the code is any good. |
-| 📁 **Archived** | Archived on GitHub and read-only. Kept so links don't rot. |
 
 Private and pre-announcement projects aren't listed here.
