I was looking for a proper pigeon hole to place my support request wrt
wxPerl for Win-64 on ActivePerl
<http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.wxperl.users/2016/01/msg9577.html>.
On the main wiki page, I found links to two support pages, Wx
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Wx> and Alien::wxWidgets
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Alien-wxWidgets>, at
cpan, but they are not maintained.

<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/ByMaintainer.html?Name=MBARBON>, and
MDOOTSON <https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/ByMaintainer.html?Name=MDOOTSON>.
Clearly they abandoned the effort, or that is the impression I get from
outside.
Does anyone willing to take responsibility to maintain these pages?

As I understand from you discussions, there is a new on-going reformation
attempt.
James' list is a good plan but it also seems overwhelming to approach,
unless there is a prioritization in place.
I would suggest assigning a high priority to making the existing software
work on the current platforms with the latest versions of Perl/ActivePerl.

My two cents.
