True, there are also a lot of open PRs and issues. I'm surprised no other developers or orgs are stepping in to keep the project afloat. No wonder the Apache Way goes a long way! Either way, their approach of building around an open-protocol was a good decision.

If you'd like to consider using PicoMQ, I have examples to deploy on Fly.io and AWS. ursula.tonbo.io is also a good option to try.
