David is certainly the one to ask, but he's away on a vacation at the
moment.  From memory, the main reason was that we haven't matured
enough as an open source project.  In particular, we need to build
some more community interest and involvement.

Incidentally, one way to build this interest is to add a SPARQL
interface.  This has me reprioritizing the importance of this
interface.
