Before I wrote my first e-mail, I found the post you are referring to
but I left the page and couldn't find it again to put into my e-mail. 

Anyhow, the suggestion was that epiphany was orphaned in the sense that
since the maintainer was gecko-maint and gecko was no longer the back
end, it didn't make sense for them to maintain it. A later post from
the gecko maintainers said that they had experience with Webkit and
would continue to be the maintainers.

I shall be really PO'd if epiphany gets dropped altogether. 

Do one thing and do it well.
