codehaus-plexus/plexus-compiler not maintained?

[Sela Lerer <le...@gmail.com>]

Hi all.

I downloaded and built Maven and started poking around the code. I got to
JavacCompiler class which is plexus-compiler repository:

$ git remote -v
plexus    https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-compiler.git (fetch)
plexus    https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-compiler.git (push)

When I opened the repository in GitHub I saw that the last commit was 6
months ago, there are Pull Requests from about the same time or older that
are still open as well as open bugs.

This seems to me like a pretty important part of Maven that every Java
project that use Maven needs.

If I'll fix one of the bugs and submit a Pull Request will anybody see it?
If I want to contribute to that part of the code is there some other route
I should use?

Thank you,
Sela Lerer.

Hi

Remember open source is mostly based on volunteers spare time so sometimes
for different reasons some doesn't have anymore this spare time...
But feel free to submit pr
