I registered just to post this but I think the latest news is pretty much the end for me. I checked up on the project for years now and made a habbit of dropping in every few months to see how it's going for them, several times I though it was more or less dead but they always pulled something that convinced me otherwise. New uppdates, changed version number or something like that after we heard nothing for months. When they pushed it up to almost the finnished version I thought we would finnally get to see something but apparently that's not how it is. He admit in his post he have not written a single line of code in two months and also say he has no idea when he will only that he will.
After a message like that claiming the restoration project is alive seems to me as if someone where to claim the Return to Windspear mod for BG2 is aive despite the fact that everyone involved has also admited they are not working on it, only differnce is that here they are not admiting yet they have no desire to work on it as well.
I don't think he really owe us anything but for them to continue to claim the project is alive and well after all this time, especially if it's been almost done for over a year and they done little progress since then... well I wouldn't call it lies but it obviously seems false to me. A project that isn't worked on isn't alive and this time I don't think anything before the accual release will convince me otherwise. Now there is a chance Dashus might one day get his interest back and complete it but waiting around for that to happen and claim the whole thing is alive in the process doesn't seem worth it to me.
I heard there is another project that is trying to do the same thing though so hopefully those people will have more luck. I still hope to be able to play a restored version of Kotor II one day since it's one of my all time favorite games yet right now I wouldn't bet on it. ^^
[edit] Another thought is that while they owe us nothing as long as they give us nothing (including uppdates or the like) they should expect nothing back, including a positive attitude.
