I'm starting some new projects and I want to use PetaPoco (I've used it before in other projects) or NPoco.

I know NPoco is a branch of PetaPoco (based on v4.x), and PetaPoco is now in v5.x.

But it seems that althought NPoco is PetaPoco + some new features, the code bases are now a little bit divergent and changes to PetaPoco cannot easily be integrated in NPoco and viceversa.

Is PetaPoco still in development or is it deprecated/in maintenance mode? Will all future development done in NPoco?

    Just found a bug in Petapoco that works in NPoco. That will cause me to switch (see [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19803012/workaround-for-petapoco-sqlite-aggregate-date-bug][1]) [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19803012/workaround-for-petapoco-sqlite-aggregate-date-bug – erict Nov 06 '13 at 03:10

Not to confuse matters even more, but there's also AsyncPoco, a fork of PetaPoco v5 that adds asynchrony for those on .NET 4.5 or higher. I can't speak to the development status of PetaPoco, but if there are bugs that have gone unfixed or feature requests unanswered, feel free to create issues/pull requests on AsyncPoco. I don't have any sort of roadmap for 1.1 at this point but am open to suggestions and eager to move the project forward if there is interest.

PetaPoco is more like "Finished" than deprecated. It's fine for me that way. No need to add bloat to an efficient product.

That said, if you need a more active product, you should surely go for the NPoco road.
