I haven't released an updated version of the taglist plugin in the last three
years. But that doesn't mean the plugin is not maintained. :-).

We have ran out of features to add to the plugin :-) and the plugin is
mature.

To display the tags grouped by the class or structure, we need
sufficient information in the tags file. The tags file generated by the
exuberant ctags tool has some information. This works for simple
cases. This doesn't work for anonymous structures, unions, etc.
