With Mike Hearn quitting Bitcoin, what seems to be the future of bitcoinj? Mike Hearn has apparently sold all his Bitcoins. So what is to be expected about the development of bitcoinj? (and Java based clients in general).
Hopefully, bitcoinj will now be maintained by other people that based projects on it. From what I've read and the commit list it seems that Andreas Schildbach, who also initiated the Bitcoin Wallet for Android, now takes a leading role in maintaining of bitcoinj.
