Verdict

Finished, not abandoned

github.com/BrianHicks/finch looks complete rather than neglected — no commits for over 12 years. 3 of 6 open issues have had no reply. A library that has stopped changing is not the same as one that has been dropped.

health 28/100

Why this verdict?

finished — No commits for over 365 days, and almost nobody filing new issues — or the README says the project is done.
