actually the opening comment hit home pretty concisely, i implore you to read the code in question, the examples rasied, and to come back and tell me that you would be happy to work with this code base. the author themselve states that they are responsible for the majority of commits. this should be a red-flag, itself.

  Sounds like the reason is nobody else will touch it. Once the author is gone, you end up scrapping the project.

    This is a commercially funded project, there are other people reading and working with the code. There's just rarely a reason for them to commit any changes.
