Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
From my understanding, development is paused because the underlying Sedna library has an unknown issue causing compilation issues.
Describe the solution you'd like
Dropping the pure-Java Sedna library in favour of QEMU/KVM backed virtualisation might make sense.
Describe alternatives you've considered
There are a number of RISC-V pure-Java libraries out there (see here) that could be used.
