Who will maintain it though? It's true that Lightbend is doing almost all of the development. There is no one else who knows the code base and no one willing to learn it, since Akka is pretty uncool nowadays.

The number of people who can continue maintaining this, is small, and such people are mostly making lots of money doing other things already, I'd think. GP zozbot234, I'm guessing an OSS fork will go mostly unmaintained or start to source code rot, even if "maintained".
