The State of CyanogenMod
Ive been reading rumors that CyanogenMods core philosophy is changing, that weve been sold, or that weve given up and I want to go on record saying none of this is true at all. As you may know, there are only a handful of people that can approve changes for CM but a lot of developers for it. You may have noticed that we are operating at a slightly slower pace than normal, but thats simply because weve been busy and real life responsibilities come before this project. No one is getting paid to work on the product.
You have most likely become aware that Cyanogen has been hired by Samsung, as that news is traveling through the Android community like wildfire. He is not leaving the project. Samsung is aware of his involvement in CM and there are no qualms from that end. He hasnt been active recently because he is in the process of relocating to a new city for his new job, thats all. ChrisSoyars has been hired by Grooveshark and is currently working on projects with them. Koush is working on his DeskSMS application as well as ClockworkMod recovery. And finally, my semester is starting as are my medical school interviews.
As they have before, our insane schedules will calm eventually and we can devote more time to the project. But just because we arent around to approve changes doesnt mean development has stopped or even slowed for CM. There are 40+ talented developers programming behind the scenes night and day to give you the Android distribution that you have come to know and love. On top of all of the above, we are currently in a soft feature-freeze for another 7.1 RC. (You can call it a feature slushie if you like) Because of this, we are reluctant to approve new features that may prove problematic for certain devices for the sake of the stability of the entire tree.
All I ask is that you bear with us during this hectic time.
