freedb.org status?

Hi,

I will prepare a relatives pc for ripping/encoding (eac/lame) with automatic tagging and tags downloading of freedb.org.

I remember there was a freedb shutdown and an alternative project afterwards, freedb2. I also remember fb2k needed another freedb plugin (iirc). But I'm not too informed about this.
In EAC http://freedb.freedb.org:80/~cddb/cddb.cgi works fine. Is this safe for the future (important, because my relative is a computer newbie and everything should work for a long time if possible)? Is http://freedb.org already owned by successors?

Thx.
