Is this project still being maintained? #146

Is this project still being maintained? I can see that there are many open pull requests and no commits for a while...

And the last release of the Java-Scala version was almost 2 years ago. Same for the referers.yml file.

@clement911 @ispringer what did you guys do instead? does a replacement exist? I have been using Piwik instead but if there was a better community dataset we would be able to maintain?

Hi all - apologies for the delay - we are bringing this project up-to-date after a long hiatus.

We are happy to do a monthly release of the referers database, similar to how Maxmind do their release process.

In terms of the libraries/SDKs, what needs to happen is:

  1. Move each library into its own repo, per #140
  2. Update each library so that it uses the standalone database, rather than an embedded data file (which obviously ages with the SDK)
