Why is FreePBX/PBXact using old kernel/distro?

When I left Sangoma in 2019 I worked with Matteo Bignotti (@mbignotti) on taking over and maintaining the distro (as I took it over from @xrobau). Matteo was the distro maintainer for Switchvox. (see Sangoma 7.6 Distro GA)

Since it looks like Matteo’s account here is broken I suspect it’s been deleted. Those of us from the Schmooze days retained our accounts because we never migrated to Microsoft Active Directory for our logins. So when accounts disappear it means the person left Sangoma.

According to linkedin he’s still there: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matteobignotti/

He was the person in charge and leading the distro. However his boss left last year and then Matt left earlier this year so no idea where the priorities are at now.
