I reckon Sony has pretty much given up on suppporting the Yaroze, which is a shame. You could point to the lack of Yarozers still showing an active interest, what with games releases slowing, but if you look back through the NG's, I believe that Sony support slowed way before the actual Yarozers did. Anyhow, there's still us around, and even if the Yaroze project ends, theres nothing stopping the remaining Yarozers setting up a public domain for continued Yaroze use, also this project has at least set most of us up for windows programming (the next logical step), so maybe we can all go off and form a public group? Still like Matt says below, there have been a few good entries, and I for one would be making a BIG effort to create more games if we only had even a little acknowledgement from Sony. As long as we continue showing interest, at least we might still get to keep the ng's and such-----hopefully, Marc.
