Sure, I accept the idea the site can be useful. But it's obviously not
important or you would fix the warnings. So why waste any other
resources on it? Just get rid of it.

And BTW - when you do get ready to go to a new release of PHP, you'll
have a lot of work ahead of you in testing and validating the code.
Having to go back and fix warnings you should have fixed months or years
ago will just add to that workload, delaying the implementation even longer.

And no, it's not a new experience. Every one of the projects I've seen
who ignored the warnings have said exactly the same things you're saying
- including the fact the code "WILL stop working"... But when that
happened, the code all of a sudden becomes more important and can't be
dropped so easily.

OTOH, those who have taken the time to fix the warnings long before the
upgrade have had a much easier time.
