is ofbiz dying?

Is ofbiz dying?  The mailing lists seem quiet, this seems to be
confirmed by the dev and commits mailing list counts dropping off:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ofbiz-dev/
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/ofbiz-commits/

Is it just a blip?

  Hi Chris:

I suppose it all depends on what you mean by "dying".

In the circles I run in - which for sure does not include the PMC - I
have seen nothing but activity pick up as far as new adopters are concerned.

Perhaps the project could see fit to adding a download counter on the
9.04 stable release download link. That would give a nice indication of
how many new users are at least wanting to try things out.

IMHO, commits falling off could also be an indication of project
stability and not imminent demise :-)

Regards,
Ruth

It's normal for community activity to ebb and flow.

For me personally, I haven't been involved much lately because my
responsibilities at work have changed - so my employer-sponsored OFBiz
work has stopped.

I have not keep track but it seems that there are a lot more newbies on
a monthly basis.
considering the Economic slump, I would not put a head stone on ofbiz yet.
as the Economy gets better and there is cash flow for new development I
expect to see a lot more activity.

The revision ticker just passed 1,000,000, which seems like a pretty
good sign! :-)
