It looks like similar (and more) functionality is now built in to Discourse:

- [Discourse 2.1.0.beta5 Release Notes](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-2-1-0-beta5-release-notes/95331)
- [Reply without bumping topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/reply-without-bumping-topic/94406)

So there is less reason to install this plugin anymore in terms of _functionality_.

That said:

- It looks like the built-in functionality only lets you reset the bump date to the _last post’s_ date, not to an arbitrary post’s date.
- The built-in functionality also lets you reply without bumping, but lacks the ability to, say, prevent someone else’s reply from bumping the thread without deleting their reply.

So maybe some people will still want to use it.

Either way, _plugin developers_ should still find the heavily annotated source code useful, even if what it actually does is now redundant.
