If they were going to shut the whole thing down, I am fairly certain that Dick Wall would have made an announcement.  That said, I miss them too.

I am a little surprised that Tor and Chet have not gotten someone from Google to do an interview that can talk about Android, I'm really hoping that they will.

Looks like it. Over the last year or two, there were very few "real" episodes, it's been mostly session recordings from the roundups.

I'd ask Dick to at least keep the "Roundup" marker on the episode titles so those who are not interested in them can skip the download.

We've all been very busy and have had a really hard time getting together to record.

Hopefully we'll figure something out in the near future. We do want to keep things going.

Understood -- though I'd second the request for keeping Roundup in the title where applicable, as I'm really only interested in listening to recordings of the regular podcast (though I might like to attend the Roundup in person some year).

Ok, I'm going to come right out and say it. I've been chastised in the past for being ungrateful considering its a free podcast, yada yada.

Hate me, i don't care. I say this because i care deeply.

The reason i skip a lot of the roundup sessions is the quality of the audio.

Same here, I usually skip the round ups but I do miss the podcast, especially after the last one (or the one before last, I forget), which was frightfully and delightfully technical, a welcome change of pace after the ones that preceded it.

The other thing I've missed is the announcement of the subject of the Roundup session at the beginning of the podcast, before the jingle.
