While trying to keep up with everything going on right now it is good to see that the Desura client open source is still going ahead and an unofficial update has been posted on the forum just to give anyone interested in it some further info, quote is posted below;
It's good to see work going on and I look forward to continued solid releases of Desura!
QuoteI'm not sure how much I'm allowed to say, but currently the project is open source (GPL'd), but it's only open to a few select developers (myself included) to clean up, fix and get working for a public release. So far I have added XDG Basedir support (that may be backported) and fixed a few errors in the build process, but we don't think it's ready for release quite yet. Lodle is on his first vacation in a few years, so development isn't really active. He'll probably be back on January 8th 2012, and then work will resume. He's kind of needed seeing as he knows his way around the source base.
