No, it's not dead, it's in development still.
I guess the reason for the lack of time / responses of Rafael could be:
- having a gf
- having friends
- having a job
- developing jforum in his sparetime
- being main / lead developer
... this may all be reason for why at times he may appear less active on the forums. But there's still activity...
If it'd be dead he'd have mentioned it already
Edit: I almost forgot to get into the first part of your words:
The reason fro why there may be little support for JForum3 is that there's probably only very few that currently have it in use. I'm still using JForum 2.1.8 and the last configuration I did to my forum was like half a year or year back. I still do know what might be possible or not, but.. I dont know the exact lines of code anymore ;)
And I never had a look at JForum3 yet either. Though I thought about downloading it from the CVS one day...
Maybe monroe or gaitor have it already running and can get into your question, but I think that you can agree that most ppl that are using JForum only will use a stable version (as it's for productivity in most cases) and therefore can't give suppport for jforum3.
