The part that was last touched in 2019 is the spec + homepage. By this measure, UUID was last touched in 2005 (if we count RFC 4122).

Most ULID implementations are still actively maintained and people are still using it in production. Most implementations also have liberal license like MIT so no, you should not worry about the GPL spec (unless you plan to distribute the spec with your app).
