[development] Is E-Publish Abandoned?

Now that the emailpage issue is cleared up, I have another question. Has E-Publish been abandoned? I haven't heard from Patricia Barden since July. At the time she said she was getting too busy to pay much attention to the E-Publish project. Sure enough, nothing has been committed since then, and important patches are accumulating. I also see that this module was downloaded 827 times in October.
