- graphviz 4y agoYou can ask us anything here. The community should applaud the efforts of Magnus Jacobsson, Mark Hansen, Matthew Fernandez, Steve Roush, and recently Costa Shulyupin to support graphviz in a more disciplined and professional way. In hindsight, we got a lot of play by treating Graphviz as a research vehicle, but we weren't able to (or didn't choose to) direct a lot of effort into documentation, rewriting existing code, sorting out feature interaction, developing very polished front ends, or broadening the scope of the effort. Or finding a new home after AT&T Labs lost its enthusiasm.
- Karliss 4y agoI am glad to see that they recently (relative to project age) got two new developers which have for the last two years actively worked on rejuvenating the project, tackling some long standing issues, and actually making new releases with bugfixes. That message was added to README before that. Of course it doesn't mean people should stop supporting the project, but I am currently less worried about future of graphviz than the last time I looked into the state of it.
