Is this library being maintained? #69

At Enclustra, we have been considering open-sourcing our clock-crossing VHDL blocks and constraints files. However, I attended a presentation by @Paebbels at FPGA Conference Europe in Munich and I saw that PoC already provides these things.

I have personally used some of these PoC clock-crossing blocks in the past and found them to work well. Therefore, it would make sense for Enclustra to use the PoC blocks (and contribute to their maintenance), instead of maintaining different versions of basically the same logic.

However, there is just one thing that we are worried about: the lack of activity. There has been no release of PoC since 2017, some GitHub issues have remained open for years, and there has been no visible development for years. So, what is the status of this library?

I think @Paebbels mentioned that there was a lot of internal development that will hopefully be released sometime soon. Is there any plan for when this release might happen? And why can't I see this development in any of the Git branches?
