Python-RSA is a pure-Python RSA implementation that supports encryption and decryption, signing and verifying signatures, and key generation (PKCS#1 v1.5). It can be used as a Python library or via the command line, and is distributed via pip as the `rsa` package. The project has been archived, and the maintainer notes it should be used with care due to limitations around timing attacks.
The upstream project is marked as archived, and there is no evidence of ongoing active maintenance in the update history (last shown published update is v4.9 on 2022-07-20, and this source’s upstream description indicates it is a pure-Python RSA implementation).
Last release:
respx is a utility for mocking HTTPX and HTTP Core in Python tests, letting you patch HTTPX and define request routes with mock responses. It is useful for pytest-based testing, including a respx_mock fixture and optional marker to configure mock settings.
Actively maintained: Evidence shows ongoing work in 2026, with multiple recent updates (0.23.0 on 2026-04-07, 0.23.1 on 2026-04-08) and an upstream push on 2026-07-21.

Pygments/pygments appears actively maintained, with an upstream push on 2026-08-17 and a corresponding update to 2.21.0 the same day, including multiple lexer and formatter improvements (not just a metadata bump).
Last release:
pycparser is a complete C99 parser written in pure Python, designed to parse C source code for applications that need to analyze or transform it. It is useful for tasks like static code checking, building a front end for specialized C compilers, and generating information such as unit-test discovery, and it can integrate with CFFI to parse C function and type declarations.
Actively maintained: Evidence includes a very recent upstream push on 2026-08-24 (close to today, 2026-09-10), and the project has shipped major updates as recently as 2026-01-21.
Last release:
pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python that provides implementations of ASN.1 types plus standard BER, CER, and DER codecs. It is useful for building Python objects from ASN.1 definitions, encoding and decoding ASN.1 data structures, and loading or dumping ASN.1 structures from Python types, originally for SNMP and then generalized for other protocols.
Actively maintained: the upstream push and most recent updates are in July 2026 (last push 2026-07-09), indicating current development rather than a dormant state.
Last release:
propcache is a Python 3 library that provides a fast implementation of cached properties for Python 3.10+. It is designed to be nearly identical to functools.cached_property, with an additional under_cached_property option that caches using self._cache. Useful for speeding up computed properties in Python applications, including optional pure Python or compiled installs.
