I'm looking through I'm not seeing responses from the developers or code commits. Is anybody still working on this?

Bumping the question before I get too attached to OGM and have to dump it. It would be nice to not be doing tons of low level stuff to load nodes and edges.

Sadly yes, the main dev Nigel Small answered this on twitter:

Thanks Julian. No, I've not been at Neo4j for over a year and a half now, and I'm no longer involved with the community. When I left, I tried to find someone else to take it on but was unsuccessful. I would suggest you consider it EOL, and look to the official driver instead.

Maybe the community can take it over.

Yes, please now consider py2neo to be EOL. I do not plan to make any more updates and am currently considering whether or not to renew the domain names next month.

During my decade-long involvement with Neo4j, there was never any interest from the company in providing official staffing for the project. On leaving back in 2021, I was also unable to find a maintainer.

Given that so much time has now passed, the code will be very out of date. At least one major release, plus a bunch of other features have been shipped since I last worked on this. Therefore, another maintainer would likely have a very difficult job catching up.

I would strongly suggest looking to the official drivers as a replacement. Although I know that the functionality provided there is slimmer, the team of engineers I left behind are fantastic.

Thank you to everyone for making this such a fun part of my life. It's now time to move on.

Nigel ❤️

Thank you so much Nigel 💖.

Maybe one day there could be another maintainer? But if so forking is always possible. 

Good Luck and Thank you for your hard work.

Anyone looking for an alternative should take a look at neomodel .. It offers a similar OGM solution and syntax and is back under active development.

It's available again in https://pypi.org/project/py2neo/, and for older specific version on https://pypi.org/project/py2neo-history/.
