Maintenance isn't a breaking issue, at the moment. No one's stepped up to fork them and accept PRs, because they work as is. I'm personally working on this, though and expect a lot of progress in the next months - but this won't impact day to day coding, because they work already.
Good to know! Sorry, didn't mean to be overly negative with my comment. Maybe our obsession with never-ending projects that need to be constantly updated is wrong.
