I just tried to drop by bbShowcase and found this waiting for anyone visiting

---

The bbPress Showcase has been discontinued.

The removal of Sam Bauers and the halting of bbpress.org 2.0

was a clear and final sign that there is no interest in allowing

bbPress to become a mature, robust program and community.

By now bbPress 1.5 could have been in alpha but instead

bbPress development has been deliberately stagnated,

which should be a very alarming warning to everyone.

In addition, bbShowcase had only six donations in 2009,

which indicated to me there was no interest in my work.

My code will remain on bbpress.org as open source GPL

for those that wish to use it, however I caution you to

consider bbPress’s lack of leadership before continuing to use it.

I know Matt is really busy and managing all these projects should be getting to his nerves. I am sorry Matt. I am grateful to all of you for providing such amazing things as WP, Akismet etc. but we do look up to you. that’s why we feel frustrated.
