Lack of maintainership, along with low interest in the community (no other
dev interested, close to no requests
for such functionality to start with).
A module needs someone that officially cares for it, both attempts were made
by people that eventually disappeared, so did the modules
If I had to start today I'd have a look at the parsing portions, but would
rewrite the store to be
based on ContentDataStore (it's the base class we suggest people to use in
order to write
a new data store today).
