Nanomsg is not dead.   The maintainer tried to introduce a code 
of conduct (about which even he was uncertain of the merits of), 
felt he didn't have the effective power to do so,  and then 
resigned in frustration.   A few weeks later he was back and it 
hit 1.0 recently.
Had an exchange with Pieter on Reddit and after looking at commit 
history,  he took back his suggestion that Nanomsg was dead.

It's silly to compare the two communities and make any inferences 
because Nanomsg has fewer people and the originator has a job and 
Google and many interests.

There are deimos bindings that Ilya wrote for me and I 
open-sourced,  and a wrapper that I wrote that is also open 
sourced.  There are some bugs in the deimos binding - haven't yet 
had time to push my changes.

The wrapper isn't super well tested but I use it.   Will make it 
more polished when I have more time.
