Behind what?

Maximus was way ahead of it's time when it was released back around '95.

Lanius released the source so others can pick it up and develop it further if
that's what they want to do.

I don't know but I don't think a lot of folks care to develop BBS software
today so we don't have the large pool of developers we once did.

If you want a currently developed BBS software there are a few. Synchronet,
Mystic, MagickaBBS and ENiGMA come quickly to mind and there are others I'm
sure.

There are still a couple Maximus BBSs running out there..
