It's a shame to see it go. I never used it, but the fact that it used vanilla Arch packages under the hood was certainly preferable to Manjaro's "don't call it Arch" approach. I worked on a similar "batteries included" distro based on Fedora that shut down. Fortunately, by the time it ended Fedora had come a long way towards making initial setup easier for newcomers, and our distro was mostly redundant sans a few extra packages and theming. On the other hand, Arch still lacks a friendly installer.
