no updates in 10 months ... and I don't blame them .. at most , with a 10% speed pickup, you get a few elo, perhaps 5. Now that Stockfish has large pages , it's even less speed gain than previously (asmFish has had large pages for quite a while).
Once Mohamed left the project it was doomed. He was the genius who drove it to stardom. Afterwards, it lost all of its steam.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.
Not all of it, but most. Lyudmil more or less kept up with SF development, but once he left too, it started to seriously get behind. It's a pity Justin couldn't even reach the SF11 landmark (it fell short for about 11 months!).

It depends on your testing framework. For me, asmFish is still better than the latest classic SF dev version (even with the year and a half lag).
