that reddit link says the website isn't working but that was 15 hours ago , not sure how about you but It works just fine for me .
However on Github it seems to be correct it's being few months since nothing was touched , I checked their Twitter and they seem to be Retweeting some interessting stuff and I guess they are still actif .
Last time they tweeted about the project it was on 9 March seems like they are in need of more funding  http://www.miningpool.co.uk/darkwallet-funding-public-1-0-release/
also check here https://www.darkwallet.is/donate/


The Article says : "The Darkwallet has raised 67% of its funding goal this road, or almost 89 BTC of the 131 BTC goal."
Donation page which is automatic for sure says : "98.49102118 of 131 BTC received" = 75% , so I guess they are on the good way and getting donations .

it wasn't truly anon anyway, we are aiming at zero coin, which is much better, and use zero knowledge proof

I guess it's a mix of lack of funding and general disinterest from the community. I never really saw many people who would adopt their system, although their work was quite big... Let's see if they are still motivated to develop this further.
