Meteor has been a bit of an afterthought at MDG the past 2 years because of apollo. Currently only developed by 1 member of MDG. However it has opened more towards the community and aligned with the rest of the JS ecosystem. The awesome work of Benjamn has made it the best dev experience around IMO, but it seems to have lost a bit of momentum. I hope they could put some focus back on it with the money that Apollo brings, but that's probably naive. They have to answer to their investors...
