I don't think that there was a falling out. Here is what David Ascher

I was laid-off from ActiveState at the same time as Mark (and a dozen
other people) and it seemed pretty clear that the company was losing
tones of money and had to get rid of some people in order to survive.
There was one ActivePython developer and he was laid-off. I would
imagine that Trent Mick, who was/is the Komodo project manager, is the
only person working on ActivePython and I'm sure that he has lots of
other responsibilities.
I bet that after ActivePython 2.2 comes out, future releases will become
available in a more timely fashion.
Cheers,
Brian
