That's exactly the depressing part I was talking about. It's a fantastic project, which is now open-source, but there doesn't seem to be anyone who would take over and support it longer term. Even though I believe there's a viable business there as well (As an end-user in a small company, we'd be happy to pay a monthly subscription for it, equivalent to or even higher than what we'd pay other solutions out there, e.g. lastpass).

It's fair to tell me "then why don't you contribute / do something instead of complaining?", but as much as I'd like to, it's got lots of moving parts and needs significant time and lots of different skills, or some form of backing to pay for those. Even if it can be turned into a solid business, it will still require resources to support - not just the technology, but marketing etc. So far, I haven't seen anybody picking this up, but I really hope someone will. It will be a great loss to see it die.

Does EFF or other non-profit organizations act as security nets for open source products and ensure that the software they endorse remains available to everybody?
