Because it is. No one has worked on it for quite a while. There may be some ongoing work with it, but as of this writing it is considered a dead project.
Users who have installed OSSEC-WUI 0.3, have not applied the necessary patches, and are using OSSEC 2.6 or later may see alerts like the following:
2013 Feb 02 10:48:42 Rule Id: 2901 level: 3 Location: ubuntu->/var/log/dpkg.log Src IP: 02 10:48:41 install libapr1 <none> 1.4.6-1 New dpkg (Debian Package) requested to install. ** Alert 1359830922.3553: - syslog,dpkg, 2013 Feb 02 10:48:42 ubuntu->/var/log/dpkg.log Rule: 2901 (level 3) -> 'New dpkg (Debian Package) requested to install.' 2013-02-02 10:48:41 install libaprutil1 <none> 1.3.12+dfsg-3The alert format changed in 2.6, and since OSSEC-WUI is essentially abandonware it was not updated to handle the changes. A number of users have provided patches to correct the issues, and the OSSEC team is planning on releasing an updated WUI containing these patches. You can find a patched version of the OSSEC-WUI at a github repository <https://github.com/ossec/ossec-wui>_.
