Question regarding project maintenance status

[vmatt]

Hi MobyDQ maintainers,

I'm evaluating MobyDQ for production use in our data quality monitoring pipeline. I notice that the last merged PR was in 2022, and I wanted to understand:

• Is MobyDQ still being actively maintained?
• Are there plans for future releases or updates?
• Should new users consider this project for production deployments?
• If the project is in maintenance mode, is there an official statement about this?

Context: We're specifically interested in using MobyDQ for data freshness monitoring and automated quality checks, and want to ensure we're making a sustainable choice for our infrastructure.

Thank you for your time and for creating this valuable tool.

Hello @vmatt and thank you for reaching out.

I confirm you MobyDQ is not under active development nor maintained anymore. While it might still be functional, the code base is a little old and it would probably require some refactoring to align with today's standard. Considering this, I wouldn't recommend it for production "as is" but if you have a team to maintain and develop a fork, you're welcome to reuse its code and design principles.

Cheers
