If we did that I doubt there'd be anyone left :-)  Or are you
volunteering?

So far as I know, Konstantin's still around and doing things with XD2.
I think Aslak does more Ruby stuff than Java these days.  I'm still
around, but don't really use XDoclet at work any more and haven't had
any spare time to do much more than mailing list admin in a long while.
Having a baby tends to have that effect ;-)
I don't know who else is still here, except occasionally when mailman
complains their mail is bouncing.

Let's see, there was a total rewrite with no migration path for the
existing templates or parser, a move to codehaus which just serves to
confuse people over where XDoclet actually "lives", after which the main
architect of the rewrite disappeared.  A few new people volunteered,
made the odd update then disappeared again.  I guess you could call that
"stalled"...
