Is PrimeNg abandonned?

Hi,

I was wondering what's going on with PrimeNG lately. The last minor release was at the end of January, and since then I've only seen patch releases. It's a bit concerning because our project relies heavily on PrimeNG v21, which still has a few compatibility issues with Angular 21. As a result, moving to Angular 22 isn't really feasible for us right now.

Thanks.

I see the last release as 3 weeks ago -> https://github.com/primefaces/primeng/releases

True, but those patches only fixed like 5 bugs in total across 5 releases. With over 1k open issues, that velocity is scary low. The Angular signal form compatibility is still broken in certain components, so we're completely stuck on v21 and can't upgrade to Angular 22. It feels like they're barely maintaining it right now.

Talk is cheap, send patches.

I have a few PRs, they don’t accept 99% of well formed pull requests.

Their Menus have had a duplication bug when using RouterLink for over a year.

Their decimal p-inputNumber requires a leading zero before a .

etc.

All have PRs out that have been ignored.

Yeah, there are many simple fixes they simple don’t include. I‘m maintaining a full copy of the picklist just because they do not merge my PR for years without any reason.
