According to the changelog of the version in unstable, the last upstream release (that's made it into Debian, anyway) came out in 2017. The package Homepage: field lists http://sourceforge.net/projects/nedit/, which shows the most recent commit as having been in November of 2020. If there is development happening on it, it's apparently not happening in public in the known upstream location. It's private, it's in a fork, or it's just not happening at all. > It doesn't look up the available printers and provide a list of > them.

Sounds like something that'd be ripe for a new upstream maintainer!
