I don't think a decision has been made yet either way, although I am not a
party to those discussions.  Contributions are always welcomed, no matter
where the main development of asterisk-gui is occurring, though.  So if
the community wants asterisk-gui to remain alive and there's someone willing
to devote development resources, then it will remain an active project for
some time to come.
