What happened to the D7 pledge?

looks like abandon ware ?

I'd also suggest that this project no longer has any purpose, considering the "Why this module" section of the project page is mostly moot points now:

Why use this module?

Like jcarousel module, this module allows you to use the carousel effect in your code by calling jcarousellite_add(). And it also integrates with Views module.
Unlike carousel module, it doesn't depend on jcarousel module. In addition to being easier to theme and providing out-of-the-box circular scrolling and mouse wheel features.

- jCarousel 2.x now provides Views integration directly.
- jCarousel module does not have any dependencies at all. The Carousel module has been deprecated.
- Out of the box jCarousel module provides circular scrolling and AJAX support. (It does not provide mouse-wheel features however)

deprecate
#748264: jcarousellite appears to be unsupported/abandoned - deprecate

oops
