According to Wikipedia:
An implementation of Forth by the GNU Project is actively maintained, the last release in November 2008. The 1994 standard is currently undergoing revision, provisionally titled Forth 200x.[2]
I wouldn't write Forth off yet! And no, I'm not one of the Forth cultists-- if I were to be programming on a favorite language of the past, it'd be Apple/UCSD Pascal!
