As many of you already aticipated, the project is officially dead.
Yahoo, now part of the OAuth group, doesn't support the Yahoo! messenger any longer:
Yahoo Messenger will no longer be supported after July 17, 2018. Until then, you can continue to use the service normally. After July 17, you'll no longer be able to access your chats and the service will no longer work.
We'll leave the source code for others as reference.
