It's not ready for general use, but it certainly isn't dead. I think a lack 
of examples for some of the more-complex widgets is probably where it needs 
the most help, but considering that only one person is working on it the 
result is a very impressive addition to the Go ecosystem. I've not used the 
widgets much, and ended up porting/reimplementing 
<http://github.com/as/frame> Plan 9's libframe due to my inability to 
understand how to get editable text on the screen. This was over a year 
ago, so things may have changed. I agree with the general consensus, 
standard widgets are the biggest obstacle for exp/shiny, but those require 
effort to be ported, and maybe copying what already exists isn't the best 
approach either.
