The code formating engine used by SO (google-code-prettify) seems dead (lasts two commits have been made on sep 2013 & mar 2014). As stated on this post, each code-formatting request have to be redirected to this project.

In my case, I was wondering if C# async/await keywords highlighting could be improved on SO, but the issue is opened since 2 years......

Even if similar question have already been asked, I'm not talking about choosing the better framework over another. IMO, the problem is about future language support and new language features (like the "new" C# async/await).

Since this project is dead, shouldn't SE/SO take it in consideration and either replace google-code-prettify by another alternative, or make the SE dev-team collaborate on this project or fork it to resuscitate it and make things happens ?
