Wow... this week hasn't been a gentle one to the Haiku/ZETA universe. Bernd Korz announced that he and the development team are breaking collaboration with Magnussoft, due to, it seems, financial disparities. What this means for ZETA's future is still too early to tell, but according to the blog post, the update will still be published. We'll try to get a comment on this as soon as possible and if possible of course.

On Haiku's side, a departure was announced yesterday, and the person leaving is none other than Jorge Mare (aka Koki), who for the past few months was responsible for the project's Marketing. In his mailing list post, entitled "Shutting Down", Jorge basically states it was time to move on, and also how much he enjoyed being part of the project. It was a short run but a fruitfull one I must say, with SCaLE and the Google Tech Talks. As I mentioned above, we'll try to get a comment, if possible.

Best wishes to all involved, for the future.

Update: Magnussoft posted an update on their site regarding this matter, on which they write their side of the story. It seems the sales weren't as good as they were hoping for, making their support no longer viable. Read it all and draw your own conclusions.
