Don't know if you received an answer to your question, but yes, Hobbit 
is an active project.  The mailing list is active, and the tool is very 
much alive, used, and supported.  It monitors 2000+ hosts at my business.
It may not look active from a release standpoint, but there is a planned 
4.3 release soon.  But 4.2 is a solid thing.
