Is this module abandoned? There haven't been any commits for half a year, we have 9 issues marked as RTBC, with another 30 ready for review.

Over 30k sites are reported as using this module, should the project page be marked as seeking co-maintainers if the current set are too busy?

I was wondering the same thing, a new release really needs to be rolled as the dev currently contains a major bug fix.

I'm even tempted to contact the maintainers and help out with the project.

Sean, I would do that if you have time. We've been getting multiple bug reports about the same issue which we've traced back to a bug in admin, which has been RTBC for months now, but not committed. I haven't got the time to take over the project, but I could help out reviewing patches and committing.

I did contact Febbraro on twitter and he asked if I was active in the issue queues, while I do test out patches at the moment I'm not that vocally active however I'm certainly interested in helping the project along I was just feeling that the issues weren't getting addressed and it was putting me off contributing as much as I could. I'm really interested in pushing through a lot of the bug fixes that are RTBC and at least giving people hope in the project so they feel they can contribute again.

But maybe there's someone better who can step up?

Marking this as a duplicate of #1380044: Issues to finish before beta4 tagged release or initial stable 7.x-2.0 release? since I imagine that's what people really want.

If someone wants to become a co-maintainer (and has the skill+time) then they can follow the unsupported module process if they think this module is unsupported (aka abandoned).
