I think the best way to describe the status is slowly waking up from a 2
year nap. I just reviewed a back log of pull requests on github.com of
people fixing issues that they wanted to fix. I also fixed an issue that
was introduced in 0.92 related to the copy task (sorry about that) and I
just submitted another pull request for review to address another issue
reported some time ago. Dominik has been working on the CI system to
stabilize it since the system has changed since we last checked in on it
and reviewing the code in my pull requests. There are also new nightly
files that can be tested in sourceforge.net. So we are slowly getting back
on our feet here.

Yup.

You can contribute code, examples, etc. A good place to start is in the
wiki at github.com. It is a bit dated but it still applies.

We can work on that. I have ideas I want to work on but it'll take time.
