I assume you are asking if the upstream project is dead, rather than
if it is maintained within Debian or not.
I do not know anything about nedit but the Debian changelog implies
there hasn't been an upstream release since 2017, while all other
recent package updates are minor packaging details.
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/n/nedit/nedit_5.7-5_changelog
( linked from https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/nedit )
Unless it was considered feature-complete in 2017, I don't think it
is an ongoing project.
I also note that its Debian maintainer has been assigned to the QA
team, which typically happens for packages that no one volunteers to
maintain any longer in Debian.
Thanks,
Andy
