The old version of netlantis was running straight in the wall (unable to 
handle larger bgp updates due to "global cisco upgrade due to major 
interface queue bug" or like "ooops, the power gird crashed") and we shut it 
thinking that a new version would be ready within a few weeks. Unfortunatly 
the work has been massivly underestimated, add to that some external 
factors, such as, I became daddy, limited sponsored hardware, etc..

Actually the core application is ready. There are some details to finish and 
some front-end to do. We're almost done!! (I know, I've said this a year ago 
already...)

Its not dead, it will come back, just a matter of time...
