It is dead as in "build errors reported 1 year ago have not been fixed
yet even if the developer commits a few changes every few months and
patches are available in the bug tracker".

See https://bitbucket.org/troorl/pino3/issue/17/build-error#comment-472096
for example or https://bitbucket.org/troorl/pino3/issue/4/patch-for-some-more-ambiguous-reference

The developper has been quite active when he started the project in
september 2010, again at christmas last year, and spent a few hours on
it every few months since...
I would not expect a working release before a few years if it ever happens...
