Apparantly not, as they did sell quite a few titles during the competition promotion they had at handago. It is indeed weird that they do not bother to update such important details on their website.

They are still alive, but it looks like they only milk some few pennies out of their old titles without actually developing anything.

It's rather pathetic, but the only signs of life as of late has been Vince Pfeiffer getting Amiga.org's Cafepress store shut down last week without warning for "trademark violations". This in direct violation of their own licensing agreement which called for 30% of the sales price which I was willing to add into the price if you guys wanted to pay for it.

This is just insane  :-(
I cannot understand how they can go so low and attack individuals in the community.
