I follow @howo, just commented to him earlier today about the missing core dev meeting, so thanks for clarifying. He's probably also busy and doesn't have much time to post updates.
I don't want to keep distracting you, you spent a lot of time answering my comments, but maybe we should make a proposal to pay someone just to talk to the devs and put up some posts on @hiveio regularly. Weekly at least.
Doesn't have to be technical, just important to give some signs of life, and not disappear for three weeks.
I answered some of the above in an edit to my previous reply.
Yes, we commented at the same time...
