Is this maintained? It seems like none of the repos have had a commit in 6 months.

If the code is stable, why does it require maintenance at all? I dont think the amount of commits in last 6 months should even be a metric. Issues would be a better place to look for maintenance.

(You should add a comment to the thread giving the backstory of how you came to work on this, and explaining what's different about it. That tends to seed discussion in a good direction. Good luck!)

Absolutely. I come here for the story, not the product.

That attitude is fine for left-pad, security-centric products, not so much, in my opinion.
