CircleCI: Failed :(

No good deed goes unpunished.

So pretty much like every Python project then. What's happening to the Python community?

It's stable and mature?

If you've been writing JavaScript your whole career you might not know what that looks like.

Such a snarky response, but I can't deny it. I see a JS package that hasn't been updated in a year and I expect that it won't even build with my environment because webpack evolution. I see a python package that hasn't been updated in a year and it doesn't faze me. Not a whole lot that can break in terms of building and integration with my python project.

Perspective is everything. Now and again I use C libraries that haven't been updated in 15 years. Why? There isn't a need. Everything builds perfectly, and some of those libraries are still the go-to solutions in my field.

Its front page describes it as an experiment, and it has 98 open bugs. Both PyPy and Python have released new versions since the last update of this project, so it's at least missing important updates.

It's moved from "growing" to "well established." I don't see many people lamenting something is in CPAN and not pip anymore. It shouldn't be surprising that you find more stale projects and packages as time goes on. Most of the interesting stuff is in the development with specific packages (Pandas, Salt, OpenStack, etc.).

Limited man-hours, and more time being spend on the data-science community? I've seen a fair number of impressive things done targeting data-science, but less big generally useful libraries.

A lot of the low-hanging fruit for generally-useful libraries have already been created, and have reached maturity?

Micropython is pretty recent, and pretty impressive.
