It's been really active; you can hop on their gitter and get a feel for where development is at (the sorts of things that are getting attention). I wouldn't use it for a production load, but it's ready enough for writing internal or personal tooling in.
(And edit to say, I think some of the core team got pretty far into the blockchain rabbit hole at some point, so that may have derailed more mainstream efforts)
- analognoise 7y agoRed died the minute they announced they were going to launch their own crypto currency.
- 9214 7y agoThat's a rather bold claim. What you call cryptocurrency is an ERC-20 token intended for experimenting with community economy (e.g. tipping contributors, voting for features, app market, etc). It's an untrodden path and the idea is quite interesting in its own way. Regardless of the blockchain involvement, I encourage everyone to stay open-minded and judge the project on its technical merits.

- 9214 7y agoWhat makes you think it is? There are plans to offer a lightweight console module for the Ethereum scheme and C3 dialect, but since there's very little interest in this branch of development from the community (and a lot of skepticism with nay-saying) it's not a priority.
- kaminari 7y agoI don't think it is, I (and I assume many developers) just want to stay far away from anything cryptocurrency-related.
