i see the issue to update ring-jetty is soon to be 1 year old, which leads me to kind of uncomfortable question - what's the status of the project? are active updates planned or is there lack of maintainers / developers?

work is active and ongoing, albeit more in the background for approximately the past year 🙂 . Basically I've been focusing a lot on some big long-term things and thus haven't put any time into smaller issues. In particular I've been rewriting a ~10kloc biff app from scratch, using it as an opportunity to experiment with various new approaches. I'll also be using that as a "flagship"/real-world open-source example biff app. Once the rewrite is done I'll pull out a bunch of code from that and release it as part of Biff. You can see the posts on https://biffweb.com/newsletter/ starting from last June to see some of what I've been working on, particularly https://biffweb.com/p/structuring-large-codebases/ which is a recap. I've also started writing more regularly about the app rewrite https://obryant.dev/archive/: • https://obryant.dev/p/rewriting-yakread/https://obryant.dev/p/yakread-algorithm/ Life's busy with work and kids, but thanks to caffeine I've still been able to get in about 10 hours/week in on yakread/biff ha ha.
