The author of the project just like abandoned it, does that sound healthy to you ? Backbone is totally irrelevant.

By what measure?

I'm using Backbone again, courtesy of CartoDB.js [1] and have no interest in chasing whatever React variant was just pushed to GitHub.

(Un)fortunately I'm an enterprise developer and that means staying a decent distance behind whatever the "state of the art" is.

A recent experience with npm/ruby/grunt has put me off it until I have a chance to sit down for a few hours and unpick what exactly it was doing (can anyone recommend a way to simulate an NTLM proxy?)
