Unfortunately, on the internet anyone can say anything. 177.36.15.4 ( talk) 21:10, 29 January 2017 (UTC) And about "private work in progress" allegations, I did some research and it seems to me that this have been alleged since the last release in 2007. Softwares like Apache OpenOffice have this status, it seems appropriate. Not dead, not abandoned, but without confirmation of activity. SamB ( talk) 23:38, 6 April 2015 (UTC) As there is no official confirmation that the emulator is being developed for years, I have changed the state of development to "moribund".

Legolas558: also, the reason ZSNES can't be ported to much (only OSes that support 32-bit x86 code) is actually that most of the code is still 32-bit x86 assembly, which is only partly because the project ground to a halt (at least as far as publicly-visible code goes). 68.45.108.103 ( talk) 05:39, 3 July 2013 (UTC) FWIW, AoL was (is?) a regular at the ZSNES development IRC channel, so he would have seen people talking about what they were doing. While ZSNES has historical importance, such is not captured in the article. Personally, I think the article should be deleted. The reception section is weak with low quality sources and long out of date proclamations. Then it moves on to veiled RISC advocacy for some reason. It quotes forum member adventure_of_link as some sort of authority when his speculation counts as much as anyone else's. Modern emulators that took its place are Higan and snes9x - Legolas558 ( talk) 16:36, 26 June 2013 (UTC) This page is a mess in multiple ways. The Wikipedia page should clearly say so. 68.45.108.103 ( talk) 06:04, 18 June 2013 (UTC) ZSNES project is dead, and furthermore cannot be ported. In short, ZSNES development is vaporware. With communication and evidence of development completely withdrawn from the public eye, there is no method to demonstrate activity. By its very definition, being "active" requires "activity". After 6.5 years of total inactivity I think it unreasonable to consider the project as active. There is practically no evidence to support this, and the editor left none. 68.45.108.103 ( talk) 06:29, 27 March 2013 (UTC) The page has been modified to reflect the project status as active. I'll be kind and spare opinion commentary. Posters with red handles are official responses.
#Zsnes emulator mac 2017 update#
I believe this 2009 thread is the last project update with any meat on it whatsoever, though it is very little: 68.45.108.103 ( talk) 03:09, 19 January 2013 (UTC) Here are the most recent updates. The only main project contributor that has interfaced with the community at all within the last five years is Nach via forum posts. Thoughts? 216.243.53.178 ( talk) 06:46, 30 September 2012 (UTC) "Private work in progress" is a meme on the forums that's been around since they shut down the public CVS/SVN back in 2007. I've added the appropriate templates to the article and am moving that the project status be changed to "abandoned." The project's official website clearly indicates the last news/dev updates as being back in 2007, so that I think would be a sufficient source to back this up. Furthermore, the current description of the project status in the article is, "Private work in progress." WTF does that even mean?! And since there's been no announcement, wouldn't that be original research? I can't tell because whoever made that edit didn't bother to provide a source, nor can I find any mention of it here in talk.

It should not take 5+ years of dead silence for a project to be considered abandoned. I think we've waited an extraordinary amount of time already. Well, it's been 2 years and, as far as I can tell, we haven't heard squat. 109.66.203.215 ( talk) 11:43, 14 November 2010 (UTC) It's been two years since the edit war (in which I did not participate) concerning whether or not the status of ZSNES should be updated to "Abandoned." As I understand, it was argued that more time should be given for the original authors to respond to inquiries and say something before making this change. Besides, if somewhere in the future a new version does arrive, the status can easily be reverted to active (and re-reverted later if the new version is again followed by years of no activity). No updates in almost 4 years is enough statement. This contradicts the very meaning of abandonment.
