I continue to use Prototype and Scriptaculous in all of my own projects - period.
I'm also answering any questions to the best of my ability in the prototypejs and scriptaculous tags on StackOverflow, any twitter searches that come up with prototypejs in them etc. Looking towards the future - I have requested multiple times for the core devs to integrate the changes I have made in my fork of prototype - however anyone can look at the repo and benefit from the updates and changes. I have integrated many updates and bug fixes and the like as well as updated the build process and unit tests to use newer methods (nodejs and phantomjs vs ruby). The repo is CI tested with Travis on every commit. I am currently working on a documentation builder that uses nodejs. Everyone please take a look and comment or file issues etc --- Walter has also requested me to take a look at the Scriptaculous library and see if I can make the same type of updates to them - when I get the documentation generator up and running for Prototype Core I'll be moving to that. Anyone that would like to help integrating updates in my repo is welcome but please bear in mind - these are not getting into "real" core repo until Andrew takes a look at them (which also means that any CDN's wont update either) https://github.com/jwestbrook/prototype I also have a fork/port of Twitter Bootstrap that uses Prototype instead of jQuery - it only fully supports 2.3.2 right now - I am still working on Bootstrap 3 components https://github.com/jwestbrook/bootstrap-prototype I've also taken some of the libraries on scripteka that seem to either be missing or outdated and have re-hosted them on my github so they dont get lost.
