Heh - yeah, when communication stops, it generally means one of two things:

#1 - We're so busy working on this thing that we don't have time to update, or

#2 - We haven't gotten anything done on this thing in a while and are embarrassed to admit it.

I assume #1 unless it's gone on for a VERY long time, in which case it's #2. I think my motivating factor right now is I'm utterly sick of trying to explain to people why my %$#@ game isn't done yet.
