As they have said, coordinating team members around the world, all of whom have had "life" get in the way of their work, isn't easy. In addition, it sounds like one or more of the team members have occassionally dropped off the face of the earth.
Anyway, I brought all this up because I was considering donating, but the banter of the last week or so has led me to believe the money may not be well spent.
Hopefully they will get back on track soon and we'll see some momentum... when that happens, I'll be the first to help fund them!
