I've had to deal with a couple of bug reports regarding mmm-noweb in 
2015, and resolved both more or less satisfactorily. So I'm guessing 
there are people who still use it, and it won't really be obsolete until 
Noweb goes away. I think it's still used at some universities.

Releasing it separately is still an option, indeed.
