I was told 3 or 4 years ago by a Microsoft MPV that WPF was effectively in maintenance mode with only a single guy working on it.

A shame, because it's probably the best UI framework I've used. I liked it much better than HTML.

Given that HTML is probably the worst UI framework that ever existed, that doesn't say much. However, WPF is so far ahead of every other UI framework I used (WinForms, Swing, Qt, Android, MFC) that its descent into maintenance mode is a bit sad. Also that no one bothers to look at what WPF did right when starting new UI toolkits and frameworks and we get more stuff that awkward and clunky to develop for that looks like all other UI APIs from the 90s.
