Organic Maps is a fork of MAPS.ME, after MAPS.ME jumped the shark and pivoted to something involving cryptocurency.

I think that "curated" refers to maintenance/development of the open-source project.

By "curated ... by MAPS.ME fouders" they mean that the Organic Maps maintainers include founders of the original MAPS.ME project (e.e.g, biodrankik is Alexander Borsuk, a former co-foudner, CEO, CTO of MAPS.ME [1,2]), which suggests that they have the experience to continue updating the app.
