Or perhaps developers just lose interest because their plugin works well enough at the moment and there's no real need to develop it further?
I agree with ZodWallop that as long as the plugin works for the majority of books on the most popular platforms there is little need for additional DRM removal capability.

The things that could use some improvement are mostly those that would help to prevent the mistakes that new users tend to make setting up and configuring the plugin. That isn’t going to be interesting to many developers. In addition to that, possible legal and personal repercussions from contributing to DRM removal software keeps many developers, including myself, from contributing to the project.
