I couldn’t find any other threads about this blog post on this forum, but apologies if this is a double post. I’m very surprised by this actually, especially since jMonkeyEngine is reasonably good at this moment, if a bit messy. Since Renanse and MrCoder were essentially the only two people making contributions we can essentially say that jME is dead now, which is very sad. Hopefully everyone who uses or had used jME will step up to make sure that the projects keeps going forward, I’ll try to help myself where possible 
I’m curious about the ‘Ardor3D’ he mentions though, guess we’ll see to what this will lead.
