Most vendor rule languages are still in active development. However, it is quite rare to get a rule language change request from a customer. Certainly I have never seen any requests to move for example Blaze Advisor SRL in the direction of some of the concepts described in the RIF threads. Of course, a customer needing a particular language feature would select a rule engine having that feature. The fact that 70-80% of the commercial rule engine market is provided by 2 vendors indicates some level of maturity about their rule languages.
