I appreciate your response, but I think also you are misrepresenting the events here. If the developers simply moved on that would be one thing, but what actually happened is they also made this claim: Using TrueCrypt is not secure as it may contain unfixed security issues. I don't think the developers owe anyone anything, in terms of supporting this project or even justifying their decision not to support it. But they did make this claim, which they didn't need to, which casts the entire project in doubt. You're saying they are refusing to elaborate on this claim? Or has no-one asked them to? Because I think this thread is evidence enough that plenty of people want to know.

I don't see anything wrong with that quote. They're simply saying it's no longer being developed, and therefore security issues could arise in the future and go unfixed. However, I still use TrueCrypt because I'm familiar with it, don't believe it has been compromised, and I trust a random pickpocket will be unable to break it.

Full Disclosure: I used to be a TrueCrypt developer. I don't see why that claim deserves any elaboration, but I'll try to elaborate anyways. All software has bugs, especially software that has been in development for almost a decade and still contains ancient legacy code. TrueCrypt is software. TrueCrypt has bugs. TrueCrypt has security related bugs. TrueCrypt does not have any security related bugs that I know of. You should not use Truecrypt.
