HI sun, the project page says this module is actively maintained etc, do you intend to do a D8 version?

I'd be curious as to whether there will be a D8 version of this module, but It looks to be dead.

I believe that this module has been abandoned. Considering that currently the stable version does not work and a reset will leave your site in a broken state. I filed an issue about this in October 2015. Nothing has been done. The development version in the meantime also has issues. Nothing has been done. At least they could have added a message to the project page stating that there is a problem.

Last commit to the code repository was in May of 2012. The other "maintainer" made his last commit in February of 2009. My thinking is they have moved on to other things in life.

I will be starting to work through the process to have this project marked as abandoned.

Although not on the project page, there is development going on. Status should be Needs work.

Not in this project. See the project page for usage of Status. Needs work means there is a development release: https://www.drupal.org/project/demo/releases/8.x-1.x-dev
