I've noticed that this model hasn't been updated for almost three months. Are you planning to relaunch soon, or is it down forever? @sondreus

Hi - good question. Amid my many other priorities it is simply hard to find the time. Currently, the problem is that Github repos are limited to 100 GB, so it will not accept further pushes. To get around that I have to delete elements from the git history (which is not trivial, as I can only do so in 2GB chunks). So I guess my answer is: ideally it would continue to update, but at the moment I cannot make any promises as to when.
