Is holtwick/peer2school retired/dead?
I see no commits since 2020-06-13 here, no any newer activity at any of the forks at https://techgaun.github.io/active-forks/index.html#holtwick/peer2school

At https://brie.fi/ng one author said: "During the Corona pandemic I tried to create a peer-to-peer solution for home schooling called peer.school. Although the project has been retired for various reasons..." Can project status and maybe some of the reasons it was retired be added to the readme? I did a quick search at the 2 twitter feeds saw no mention of "peer" nor "school". For those already using peer2school are there any serious known-issues, or would it be considered "stable" or at least RC/beta quality? It seems most of the current 22 issues are feature-requests.

Since it is peer-to-peer, should be possible to use in-house servers if the https://peer.school/ site goes away, right?

If it is dead, any similar FOS alternatives. (Or others interested in re-viving this project?)

It would be good to have peer-to-peer teaching software, as I expect non-peer2peer video-conf sites like zoom to have issues due to high load with all the virtual teaching expected in Fall 2020. Not to mention schools with low bandwidth internet.
