I don't know why, but a lot of people I spoke to seemed to have that
impression, and I essentially had to wave changelogs under their face to
convince them that darcs was still being worked on *at all*.  I had to
point out that it was a *release* announcement -- how could a dead
project have a new major version?

Perhaps a chirpy journalism major should be writing vapidly up-beat
announcement posts, denying even the possibility of problems :-P
