I feel really good about Gaia right now. Lanzer has obviously been working hard on bug fixes and taking in feedback. It's also heartening to see L0cke coming in with a really interesting story event right away.
As far as new features, I agree that maintenance of the old stuff is more important right now, but the favorites thing wasn't actually a new project - Lanzer had developed it back before he left, so it was already a finished product, more or less (except for the expected tweaking and bug fixing needed when releasing a feature site-wide). We tested it ages ago.
Also, I gather from Lanzer's post history that the previous investors are gone and that whatever new investors they have are trusting the founders to do what they feel is right for Gaia - no more CEOs calling the shots:

To simply things, today Gaia does have investors who helped us take the company back. However, those investors are very different than the ones we dealt with. They rather Gaia achieve success through me (with the help of CP, L0cke, and staff members) running the show instead of forcing a CEO hired from somewhere else. They do ask for one thing - and that is for us to grow the company. Like anybody who would invest in anything.

Thank you for sharing this information! I am on here so rarely these days that I miss quite a bit. I appreciate the source! smile
