Things as they are, few hackers get to work on the same project their whole life. No matter how deep one has been involved in a project, and how much effort was put in, there are many reasons why at some point one may decide to distance from it.
For different reasons, the people who have been maintaining PyGObject for the last couple of years (since the move to introspection) aren't currently using it much any more, which isn't ideal because it means they can allocate less time to maintenance and also lack the guidance of their own motivation.
Fortunately for PyGObject, a bunch of heroic hackers have stepped forward to take the responsibility of maintaining it:
My thanks and admiration to those who have maintained PyGObject in the past:

Good luck, and sorry to be out of touch the last few years! :P First I needed to finish the PhD thesis (now finished, waiting for defense), and then I get urgent work, and multiple additional side-projects...
I hope to be able to return to PyGtk hacking some day, when life is less crazy.
@Gustavo: I think you will find it fun, nowadays there's less repetitive work to do when maintaining bindings, but there's several interesting challenges ahead :)
