I agree, Velocity isn't dead - it's a mature product with a strong user base. And it fills a niche that even JSP 2.0 doesn't hit.

However, it's true enough though that if there were more patches and committers we'd get releases out in a more timely manner. I haven't checked recently but I do think most of the outstanding patches are now committed. (certainly the ones that are backwards compatible and follow the "Velocity Way"). But there remain a list of fairly obscure bugs that should be solved before the next release- anyone who wishes to take these on are welcome.

Velocity never was/is dead. The current committers are just picky on
what should go in the tree, mainly because the strongest asset of
Velocity is stability.
