It's a shame because I thought it was a nice addition to CodeIgniter: good idea, nice implementation. But I guess the guys that did it lost interest and nobody else kept up with it.

I am not yet familiar with Composer, but I am glad that there will be something like this for CodeIgniter in the future.
