Hey @PyvesB,

there used to be a deprecation on the front page notice for couple of months which is no longer the case and you can also see Database last updated on the bottom reflecting daily updates.

I'm little hesitant to be honest. The front page redirects to a GitHub repository that has had no activity in over 18 months, and a package where all the badges are broken. We generally only integrate with upstream services that are actively maintained and supported, which does not seem to be the case here. I'm curious to hear what @jNullj has to say as he was the one who originally deprecated this service.

review:
In #10618 I removed the service as it had no one to host it the service and was considered sun-setting. That was in october 2024.
It seems that a user started hosting on his own around the beginning of 2025 and got the original domain.
Considering the service is up for around a year I think we can restore it, worst case we start getting failing live tests we can take it down.
I think we will not lose focus on other project goals over this as it doesn't change often and required code already exist and is field tested, as this should be a revert to what we used to have.

@sorki Could you fix the test for the issue mentioned at #10618 (comment) ?
We assume the package is not out of date if we don't get a valid outdated message, this is not very robust.
We might look for Database last updated at license endpoint or some other solution.
