I think its the summer. NJ is still working & ZX is trying his hardest to get VBAGBA to full power.
I am hopping someone atempts to do raine. I tryed and fell. Then again i dont have much time to code now days.
Im sure im not the only one who has noticed it but since Sony went after Devhook there has been a slow down in releases for the PSP scene, is it because of Sony or is it just the summer months or worst still is it because they have moved onto new projects or bored with the PSP.
What do you think ?

True, Mostly Everybody Is On Vacation, And Soon Am I
An interesting issue to be raised but I don't think this is the case. It is so easy for us to take for granted and forget about the many great accomplishments throughout PSP homebrews history.
After the huge surge of releases in June & July I would not be too concerned if August sees a slowdown.
After all, don't the coders deserve a breaK and/or a vacation? I think so.
I still continue to believe that it is just a big myth that Sony is going to try and shut down homebrew and go after homebrew sites.
The issue with DevHook was not really about DevHook. It had to do with one of Sony's copyrighted firmware files being included and hosted on a site.
DevHook is not dead and I'm sure we will see plenty more from the genius that is Booster.
I also think that a lot of people are waiting for Sony's next move. I would not be surprised if once Sony releases their version of a PSOne EMU that we see another huge surge of releases on the homebrew front to show who is still boss when it comes to homebrew & emulation.
A big thanks to all of the coders, developers, artists, etc. who are working to make PSP homebrew better and better.
i heard booster was still developing, he just isnt releasing. neway its just everyones on holiday
DevHook stops coming out after 1) firmware 2.8 is released and 2) Sony issueing the cease and desist. Any real reason to update DevHook, other then a couple bug fixes, short of getting 2.8 working? Either Booster is laying low, or he's hard at work, or both.
lol well i dont know i have noticed the slow down latly and imm hoping booster istill working on devhook and will some how release new work if he has any and i hope things speed up soon
I don't think coders are scared. DevHook had an illegal file, most homebrew doesn't have illegal files packaged with it.
The reason for the slow releases is because there are three coding competitions going on right now.
Theres always these slowdowns it got pretty slow just before the 2.5/2.6 downgrader after that it went crazy.
At least we know StrmnNrmn is still coding away and he is releasing r7 today![]()

Ok we get enough "fear" shoved down our throat from the goverment. As far as I understand Devhook as Pspfan brought out was simply distributed with a copyrighted file on Boosters site so they were legal in going after that fact. However there is nothing they can do to prevent Devhook from being made and distributed without any Sony files. It will then fall on us to decrypt and disassemble the latest firmware to work with Devhook. Which will be easy enough. The coders coding all the wonderful homebrew programs are not idiots and they know this fact also. As long as they aren't distributing bios files, roms and disc images with their programs they are perfectly legal to make and distribute them. How we aquire the said files to use the programs is up to us. So no, no one is scared no one is holding back from releasing anything out of fear. It's just a lull period we are in right now.
