You're not mistaken, work is well underway: https://snikket.org/blog/borogove-the-new-snikket-sdk/
For the original poster though: we don't recommend using Snikket iOS except with Snikket instances (hosted or self-hosted). It is based on Siskin, so try that instead if you have non-Snikket needs.
If you have problems with Monal, likely the devs would be glad of feedback!
