Is CodeIgniter development dead?

[eluser]pickupman[/eluser]
Looking at the commit graph at https://github.com/EllisLab/CodeIgniter/...t-activity development seems to look relatively consistent with the peaks and valleys. As mentioned before the focus may not be commits to the develop branch, and more focused on commercial products like EE. As a business would you rather work on what is making you money, or working on something you are giving away for free?

The Reactor version was a great idea, but it becomes confusing as to the freedoms for devs to keep a forward thinking framework without sacrificing what CodeIgniter is/was.

That being said, I have been using 3.0dev for quite sometime, and have been completely fine using it. I don't care about a specific tag. At any point when you a release a version, as soon as a bug/issue is found, it becomes outdated.
