Bower development is stopped. Move to npm, if you haven't already Posted by dumindunuwan on Monday November 16, 2015 @10:56AM from the twitter.com dept. https://twitter.com/nachocoloma/status/663622545162280960 ( 1 comment | 2 points | on HN )
Bower development hasn't stopped, instead the (single!) maintainer is asking for resources to continue development:
"Bower needs resources for its maintenance. Please fill Support Declaration (http://goo.gl/forms/P1ndzCNoiG) if you think you can help."
(from the Bower readme)
