Looks like abandonware to me. There appears to have been no activity
for well over 5 years. If I don't see any activity on a status page
for over 2 years then I assume no one is caring for the code.
Sometimes it is just mature code, but I expect that there should be
some occasional updates.
On the other hand, frequent updates (or never ending beta cycles)
indicates immature code that I'm hesitant to put into production use.
It sounds like "I've completed my PhD now" code maintenance, to me. :-)
I wrote a piece of software like that. In my case, it wasn't the
basis of my thesis, rather it was a distraction from my PhD studies.
But all the same, once my PhD was completed, I never really worked on
that piece of software much again...
