Is there any [un]official info about SwingX-WS 1.1 and its development status?

I've been keeping an eye for almost a year on swingx-ws (on SwingX website, via Google and whatnot [1,2, etc.]), to see if version 1.1 eventually made it to become a released milestone (I'm using v1.0 but there are some JXMapViewer bugs that, according to JIRA, are being addressed in v1.1).

Am I looking in the wrong places? Is development still active?

(If you can suggest a nice alternative library for dealing with online maps in Swing that you particularly like, please do)

EDIT: see this question for an update.

Now that SwingX 1.6.4 is out, SwingX-WS support has been dropped altogether! Boo ...:(

What a pity... such a nice and useful tool abandoned. I'll end up embedding browser-based maps into desktop applications.

JXMapViewer has been resurrected here: https://github.com/msteiger/jxmapviewer2
