Is SpecKit *really* maintained?

With the new year coming and Den that left Microsoft to join Anthropic I'm a little worried about how the project is (NOT) progressing.

In the last month we had 22 PRs opened and exactly zero commits and the more time passes the more difficult it would be to merge everything on a new version.

Can someone from GH or Microsoft take care of managing this code base or comment if SpecKit as a tool is being abandoned in favour of adding it as a first class feature to VSCode or GitHub Copilot (totally reasonable from my point of view)?

Has some of you connection with GH or MS teams that can get in touch and elicit their point of view?

I feel that SpecKit and the way of working it impose on a project are a real game changer for any organization wanting to leverage coding agents in a proper manner, but if SpecKit is not maintained properly than I need to move on some different tooling for SDD, I really did not liked BMAD but I can change idea, if needed.

From my point of view SpecKit as a first class citizen of Copilot would be good, but I can understand that there are a lot of people using different assistants and having something generic is a strong motivation to progress the tool, but we need momentum to keep working successfully with SpecKit.
