Can you please qualify the "neglected projects" statement? Looking at the commits on both projects show that they are not neglected.

PhantomJS: Extremely popular (10k+ stars!) with a comparative trickle of commits. The major flaws might be excusable, but the number of small issues and unmerged pull requests is not.

phantomjs-node: Popular but badly structured and documented. Many small ignored issues.

At least for PhantomJS, there are 236 outstanding prs/issues since their last release Jan-26 with only 19 commits mostly dealing with Travis.

Also the development update Twitter stream @PhantomJS is not very active.
