When opening URL in About Description in GitHub repository the website can't be reached

http://physical-web.org/

Is the website no longer in use and we can rely on documentation instead ?

I'm not sure when/why the domain went down, but the site has not been updated for years. The project is not maintained by the original authors, though I do believe there are other developers who maintain alternate clients.

The project was cancelled years ago so the domains stopped being updated this year.

Thank you for info. @mmocny I see now, there is still documentation left here as a reference, so in this case should I close this issue considering the project is no longer maintained by the original authors ?

@scottjenson So in general case regarding open-source projects repositories are left for other developers to maintain even though they are not maintained by the original authors ?
