I am curious which authenticate class of this plugin people are popularly using for 3.x.

TokenAuth is poor man's JwtAuth, MultiAuth's functionality can be achieved with custom finder in 3.1 and for CookieAuth there is alternative like Xety/Cake3-CookieAuth.

So do we really want to maintain 3.x compatible branch of this plugin?

If the decision is taken to not maintain it, the readme should be updated with the other projects to direct users. Personally, I wasn't aware of the alternatives, and I tend to rate the FoC stuff higher than other peoples plugins, just because it's a bit more official.

I'm using it for the identificationColumns multi column authentication. Do I understand correctly that this can be achieved with a custom finder as well? If so, is that use case described anywhere?

I'm using the TokenAuthenticate for my api too.

I'd say:

  • make a final cake2 release
  • merge cake3 to master
  • write docs for the multi-auth alternative
  • depend upon JwtAuth and Xety/Cake3-CookieAuth
  • remove all the code
  • mark as abandoned

That way if people upgrade, we push them to the correct solutions and make it clear that this repository is not to be used directly.

i did make a release for the new cake3 version as well, as people still use this.

Readme updated, with a note about not being actively maintained and pointing to alternative solutions

Can you mark it as abandoned on packagist?

You have no foc powerz? Sure i can. Just can't point it to a single package
as replacement as there are different alternatives for each adapter
