It’s one thing to have a bunch of repos up that a couple of people are pushing around here and there. It’s a totally different thing for a major open source presence to prop up a project instead of retiring it. This isn’t some random project; it’s run by a major org, doesn’t have good contribution flows, and has been struggling since 2013.
There was a security fix in February of 2023. I don't think no releases for six months warrants going there.
Going where?
I think you completely missed their point. They were talking about project development and maintenance, not releases.
Going to the Apache Attic as mentioned by the comment I was replying to.
