Just today I realised Kiwix is still being developed (f-droid.org)

(Without checking) I deemed the project dead, because the latest f-droid release is 5 years old. Is there any chance to get the f-droid releases rolling again?

I checked, and it looks like F-Droid builds of recent versions are disabled for not being completely Free and Open Source because of one of the libraries it uses. Luckily, they appear to be migrating to an alternative library that is Free and Open Source (progress tracked here).
