Today I made some status badges to represent the quality of the code I publish on the internet. Here they are.

Inspired heavily by arp242. See his post for more details on semantics.

• 

  May work, or may sacrifice your first-born to Justin Bieber.

• 

  Should work for most purposes; is reasonably bug-free and documented.

• 

  Does what it needs to do and there are no known bugs; don’t expect any large changes or feature additions.

• 

  The author has stopped working on it, but should still work and may still be useful.

• 

  Works, probably, for the author. Not intended to work for others, but still public.

And the markdown:

See my Dotfiles for a vim command I use to insert the markdown.
