Fair call. My reasoning behind such a blunt "no" was that the question itself was short and blunt
Perhaps the person could have said:
> Hi, we at ACME Corp are planning to use this library but are not entirely sure about the current state of it, can you confirm it's still maintained? It would make my boss very happy, also thanks for your work, appreciate it :)
