Also Issue #1200 asked "Is this project dead?"
Short answer? No.
Until Ionic Native supports every plugin and everyone has moved to it from ngCordova 1.x, I'm still here to support 1.x.
I use Ionic 1.x and ngCordova 1.x because it makes business sense to do so. Ionic 2 is cool; but if you need mature plugin support, ngCordova 1.x is still your best shot.
We [I] generally release new versions of ngCordova every 3 months; dev-next always contains the latest and greatest, and I use that branch to test changes. If you want to be bleeding edge, you can use it; but it is a development branch for a reason.
Also, the releases are still 'alpha'. A little weird given we're using them in production, but that should change with the next release. I'd love to pull the alpha tag off.
