I'm not so sure about the "significant", if you check the CVS logs there's only been a few people committed anything in the last year or so, and nothing for a few months now. The fact that there wasn't an easy migration route (e.g. a compatibility wrapper XJavadoc metadata provider and .xdt templating support) for the existing modules didn't help v2's cause; we've still got a number that only exist in the old version, so many people can't move to the new one. And I don't have time (or inclination) to learn any more scripting languages that I'm not going to use anywhere else. Heck, work's keeping me so busy I don't even have time to hack around on PseudoQ[1] as much as I'd like... Besides, technology moves on. With the new J2EE stuff (and other frameworks) using annotations for a lot of the things XDoclet used to help with, I suspect it's only a matter or time before there's little need for it any more.
