@nvllsvm @mar-v-in what about a new release for CM14/LineageOS?

Gello: It has been removed from LineageOS in favor of Jello. unrar: The full source code is available for auditing. While the license is not ideal, we can at least guarantee it's not violating our privacy. I don't see the point in removing this if we are keeping proprietary firmware and drivers. TimeService: Not clear on what this does. Since it seems related to firmware, I'd be hesitant to remove it.

tl;dr - I see no reason for this project to exist anymore.

You might want to provide some info about the status of the project and the reasons for stopping development on the project page.
