[@jrgemignani](https://github.com/jrgemignani)'s statement was clear. The team 
paid to work on AGE was let go — most likely because funding ran out or shifted 
to other priorities. Whatever the reason, he summarized the future direction 
below:

version for PG17 **or any continuing support**.

   > Paid work for an open source can accelerate a project until the money, 
passion, or time runs out. It sucks, as AGE is one of the more exciting 
projects for PostgreSQL.
   
   I don't accept that an open source Apache project, which many people use and 
contribute to, can just "shut down" without proper explanation and future 
planning.
   
   It seems that the main contributor @jrgemignani was made redundant at 
BitNine, and [Apache Committee](https://projects.apache.org/committee.html?age) 
which "owns" the repo (and thus the write access) has not passed the torch to 
someone else. More info here:

   Seems that the Apache AGE Committee should be called upon to pass the torch 
on this project.
