It's maintained, but in my experience it's often the last architecture to handle a bug. Often by a wide margin. Take a look at the shapes these graphs: https://www.akhuettel.de/gentoo-bugs/arches.php maekke and zlogene do a lot of arm stabilizations, but I'm sure it's too much work for two people alone, especially if all the arm devboxes are offline (WTF?).
