Yeah, there was a minor release in 2007 which incorporated two
patches, but no
major development. Before that, last release was 2001.
That's not necessarily bad, it may also be that dvipdfm is mature.
I agree that both can co-exist, but what functionality is provided by
dvipdfm
that's not in dvipdfmx? If there's good reason, I'll knock up a dvipdfm
package,
but if there's no technical reason, I'd rather not bother.
I don't know exactly what you mean by technical reason. In any case
dvipdfm is already in texlive, so maybe it is not worth bothering
packaging it separately if it is not updated more often than texlive.
However I think that a dvipdfm package should stay, especially if it
works well and isn't updated often.
