Since the admin off late has not shown much activity with this starter kit... Will this be maintained further? I have based few of my projects on this starter kit and would love to stay with it but i am wondering if this repo would be maintained in the future... Can the admin please let us know his plans....? @erikras

The project is dead. See #1184. Numerous people offered to help or take over, but the people with commit access were not interested. There are better alternatives linked in that issue.

Is there a fork we can work from? I'm tired of switching from one boilerplate to the next, figuring out all the quirks and coding styles, to simply have it abandoned and have to start over. With that being said, this open-source and thus free and no one owes me their time and effort so I will stop complaining and offer to help instead. Is anyone up for an official fork or know of a good enough fork already there? I really don't want to start over with a new boilerplate.

I found bertho-zero's fork which I will work from from now on (https://github.com/bertho-zero/react-redux-universal-hot-example)

The challenge you'll face with projects derived from this one is that this was designed as a demonstration, not a framework. After your initial fork, it will become increasingly difficult to merge commits from the source into your application.

I believe that #1184 linked a few forks and/or similar projects that attempted to address this issue, but I don't know if any of those are still active.

@roof12 I've had to manually pick and choose commits to merge back which hasn't been super overwhelming so far, but I do wish there was a better option..
