I think "is it actively maintained?" is not a particularly interesting question 
for a community. The question is: "is this a useful library?" Then: "is the 
original author maintaining it?" And then, if not: "who will pick it up?"

What a language community cares about is "Can I easily do X in Clojure?" For a 
community to grow, the answer should be "Why, yes!". That answer shouldn't 
depend on historical details like who first wrote a library.

People matter less than code.
