Per Bruno's earlier post to this list, iText is moving to PDF-only for output. The incubator is for related projects that developers might want to use in conjunction with iText. Whether that means they're dead or alive will depend, I am sure, on the authors of the various packages.
If Howard Shenk is reading the list, he might be able to tell you/us directly what involvement he anticipates regarding maintenance and development of the RTF package.
