Hi Alon, I have been an active user and (small) contributor of both emscripten and embind for a few years now. Embind works very well (at least for my use cases) and it would be a shame to see it being abandonned. I would be glad to help with embind issues, but I might not be able to invest enough time to keep up with all the new shiny things in emscripten. Anyway, I will do what I can and hope that it will motivate others :)
