Forking exuberant ctags

Hi fellow vimmers,

I've been using vim for years, but somehow never really got into using
tags. Recently I decided to finally set that up. I noticed that
exuberant ctags hasn't had an update since 2009. Has that project been
abandoned? Or is there a better alternative that I haven't found in my
Google searches?

It's such a good tool, but it's missing some of the more recent
languages (namely, scala and go), and it would be awesome if it
supported LaTeX files (generate TOC). I know it is possible to add new
language support using .ctags file, but it pains me to think everyone
is duplicating the same work, and none of that is pushed up stream.

cheers,
Geoff
