"Where can we go to see if any changes to the module are in the works?"

That distribution has a last-update date in 2011. I would start by contacting the author, Warren Smith. His email address can be found on his user page, which is available by clicking his name in the top-right of the MetaCPAN link, or by reviewing the AUTHOR section of the documentation for the distribution.

See if he's still in Perl-land, and whether he's still maintaining the project. If so, perhaps you could send patches. If not, maybe there will be renewed interest in it, and you (or someone else) can become a co-maintainer as to update things before this 'basic authentication' deprecation becomes an issue.
