There was a discussion in the Github issues. From that it was pretty clear this was a done deal. If the project is no longer maintained, why would they. And they had the PCP reimplementation ready.

You seem to imply there was no communication, and I stopped the project out of the blue. That is a misrepresentation.

Nobody stepped up to take over maintainership, and I don't see anyone doing that now. But if someone wants to try, I can unarchive the project and restore the PRs and issues.

If not, the king is dead, long live the king!
