I assume you are asking if the upstream project is dead, rather than
if it is maintained within Debian or not.

I do not know anything about nedit but the Debian changelog implies
there hasn't been an upstream release since 2017, while all other
recent package updates are minor packaging details.

Unless it was considered feature-complete in 2017, I don't think it
is an ongoing project.

I also note that its Debian maintainer has been assigned to the QA
team, which typically happens for packages that no one volunteers to
maintain any longer in Debian.

Thanks,
Andy
