Very sad news indeed. As a contributor to Code Quarterly (the only one it seems) I was willing to put in the work to make it a success. It truly seemed like a publication that I would like to read. And that's the thing isn't it? We complain that there is nothing for "us programmers", but it seems that if we want it we need to create it. Otherwise we'll just need to settle for the dreck found in the grocer's aisle. You can never have too many articles on building the ultimate game machine.

After the initial announcement that he was accepting proposals, I never heard about it again until the Sussman and Hickey interviews (thanks btw). There is certainly a need for this, and despite Hacker Monthly's success, it's not exactly "there." That said, maybe the model, at least to start with, is something that pulls and edits existing blog content (maybe even expands upon the post) and has a few all new articles. Maybe getting 10-15 high quality, from scratch, 4-5 page articles a quarter is just too much to ask in the age of blog.
