But William is not Jeff, and vice versa.

Jeff saying he's not maintaining Lout any more doesn't say anything
about the validity of any new authoritative repository.

Also, one person creating a new repository and another saying they liked
that this new repository exists is not a proper sign of general
consensus in the community of users that this new repository is now
authoritative.

So, the fact that the original author did "unexpectedly" produce a new
release or two should not really surprise anyone!

As a side note I'll leave this here too:

    https://www.hezmatt.org/~mpalmer/blog/2024/05/14/is-this-project-still-maintained.html

In the open source world users have the option of choosing alternatives
if they exist, or the option of making their own changes, however
everyone is responsible for their own choices (and/or changes).
