I doubt it tbh, Cloudflare uses BoringTun pretty extensively within CF I think. My guess is just that BoringTun is "done" and doesn't really need much else

Have you ever seen done project that is not gone?

(I would expect at least some security patches.)

This seems to be a pattern with the official Wireguard project too:

My guess is that Wireguard is a simpler protocol, so needs less maintenance, considering that the official implementation apparently only uses around 4,000 lines of code

I created a fork, altuntun, https://github.com/cableguard/altuntun/blob/main/README.md with several PRs applied for better performance, support of namespaces and refactored variable names for readability. I want to add credits to the authors of the PRs (todo this week) and carry on improving wireguard in Rust, and work closely with the main wireguard maintainers in the near future. Looking forward for active collaborations if you are interested.

@cableguard the fork is a good start while seemingly no one at cloudflare is responding… could be something to do with them moving to MASQUE for warp but it would be nice to have… something
