# End of Life (EOL)

[Open Source Select](https://debricked.com/select/) provides you with information about projects that have been declared as no longer being maintained or about to reach end of life. Currently, we only provide this information for NPM packages.

The different states of a project are:

* Repository archived - Indicates that the repository is already archived.
* Package deprecated - Indicates that the package is officially deprecated.
* Vendor announced - Indicates that the vendor has announced an end-of-life date after which the package or project will no longer be maintained.

{% hint style="info" %}
*The EOL announced date is based on the version of the package or project.*
{% endhint %}
